About The College Specialist

In the words of Albert Einstein: ” The only source of knowledge is experience.”  

Expert Guidance Born from Experience

With over 25 years of dedicated experience, I’ve had the privilege of guiding hundreds of families and high school students through the complex college admissions, scholarships, and financial aid landscape.

A Proven Track Record of Success

My unwavering commitment has yielded remarkable results. I’ve helped numerous students secure admission to their top-choice colleges and maximize their scholarships & financial aid packages. Today, these individuals are thriving professionals – doctors, attorneys, artists, engineers, entrepreneurs, and educators – living their envisioned lives across the United States.

Authentic Testimonials and Glowing Reviews

Our eight extensive recommendations albums, dating back to 2001, and numerous online reviews showcase the genuine appreciation and gratitude from families we’ve served. These testimonials demonstrate the tangible impact of our expert guidance.

Navigating the Complexities of Scholarships & Financial Aid

Beyond my extensive admissions expertise, I’ve also developed a deep understanding of scholarships, free aid SAI formulas, FAFSA, CSS-Profile, federal, state, and private college financial aid practices. My goal is to ensure every family optimizes their financial aid allocation, leaving no potential resources untapped.
