Testimonials
We were a little overwhelmed when our oldest began her college search. Being our first child we knew very little about the college application process. Finding the right school, deadlines, the application process, and the essay, all seemed like a massive undertaking. Friends of ours recommended Marigene
and needless to say, this bar none was the best recommendation we have ever received for anything – ever! Marigene relates so well to this age group and helps your child make the college decision that is the best fit for them within the parameters you set (ie. financial, location etc.) Once the school
decision(s) is made Marigene walks with your child through the entire process, from applying to the all-important essay. Marigene made this very overwhelming process, very enjoyable for us and for our children. Because we had such an enjoyable and very successful experience with our oldest child,
Marigene also helped us with our other two children. Each one with different needs, each chose a different university and all three had a very successful and enjoyable college search/application process because of Marigene. Our recommendation of Marigene will also become one of the best recommendations you have ever received.
Marigene has simply been an instrumental person in my college journey. The application process seems so daunting and complex, but she’s really great at breaking down the pieces into manageable, understandable tasks. Marigene truly has wonderful communication skills.
Marigene was a true blessing to our family as we navigated the college selection and application process. With another child to care for and all the other day-to-day responsibilities we have as parents, it was a relief to know that Marigene was guiding our daughter. She worked tirelessly with our daughter to help her narrow down schools and then apply to them. Marigene was flexible and willing to work with my daughter’s schedule. She was also willing to spend whatever time was needed to make sure the work was completed. Her deep experience in this space was truly beneficial as she was able to answer many questions to help us identify schools that would be a fit for our daughter. She then worked with our daughter to complete the applications, including advising her on her Common App and individual school essays. When Marigene did not know the answer to a question we had, she leveraged her broad network to reach out directly to the schools to find out the right information. Since we don’t live in Florida, Marigene completed the entire process virtually while remaining closely connected to our whole family. Overall, we were very pleased with Marigene’s work and would recommend her to other families looking to successfully navigate this process.
