“Finding the Best Fit College means leaving no stone unturned. Terry has flipped and researched every college stone out there... twice. She follows trends in college admissions to help students develop a formidable application. Her writing skills are masterfully polished, and I still use her tips and tricks when applying for internships today. Working with her goes way beyond putting together essays as she walks you through anything from interview etiquette to scholarship searches. She’ll also have funny little life experiences for every scenario you may encounter, something that makes a daunting process that much more enjoyable.”
“Explaining your story to a graduate admissions committee in a compelling way while communicating self-awareness is hard. I had strong reasons for pursuing my Master’s in Public Health (MPH) and could back them up, but I had difficulty articulating this on paper. Terry understood that I had a lot to say and that I just needed help focusing my message."
We worked together over many drafts to make sure that my essays were as impactful as possible. This included cutting length to make sure I met word count limits. No matter what, I felt listened to and my voice was never lost in my final product. I credit Terry with my admission to my top choice program!”
“Terry helped get me into my dream school, The University of Notre Dame.
She is AMAZING and really cares about helping her students succeed with her clever learning methods and incredible attention to detail!
She consistently gives unrivaled advice and recommendations on the college application process.
Years later, I’m still using the skills she taught me on a daily basis. I 100% recommend Best Fit College Advising to ANYONE looking to get a college education.”
