We feel so lucky that our son worked with Dr. Megan Race. She kept him, and all of us, on track…read more She was everything one would want in a college consultant and more! This was our first time in the college process and she made the whole process less stressful. It was so helpful to have an expert guide us and be the one to help direct our son (vs us nagging him!). Our son got into his first choice college (early decision) and we are looking forward to working with Spark again for our second child. Besides having great consultants, Spark fully understands the college landscape and they give you that incredible inside knowledge to help craft your child's whole process. We looked at lots of college consultant companies and know Spark and especially Megan was the best choice for our son!

Sheila taught us step-by-step, class-by-class what we needed to know, gave us homework assignments, and helped us talk to our stressed out kids about the process.

I have boy-girl twins that just went through the process, so I am well qualified to comment. My…read morekids ran quite different searches and had different support needs. BH College Coach made some suggestions based on my kids' strategies and working styles and my kids chose the coaches they worked with. That was huge and both pairs worked together great. Both coaches knew the process and strategy cold, and provided invaluable structure, organization and motivation. Notably, there wasn't a hint of stress (for either team) as the November early application deadline approached. When I had random questions, I was impressed by the institutional resources they had to answer them. Both of my kids got into their ED schools, so of course I am a delighted customer. But I would have written the same review before we got those decisions. I can highly recommend BH College Coach.

We could not more highly recommend the services of College Coach, and specifically Kara Courtois…read more At every step of the process Kara's help and expert advice for each of our two kids has been invaluable (one a rising college freshman; the other is a rising high school sophomore). One thing that really struck us was just how much time Kara spent each year getting to know our kids. For each student Kara is truly dedicated to understanding the full person. Using her student-focused and caring approach Kara really got to know our kids. As a result she was able to give our kids great advice on the right classes and extracurricular activities to bring out their strengths, how to further develop areas that may be a weakness and when it came time to the application process to steer our son towards schools that would be an excellent fit for him both as a person and a student. With Kara's help our son was admitted to his top choice school and she has also significantly reduced the stress and anxiety at every step of the process for each of our kids. We have all been so fortunate to have Kara and College Coach helping us!!
