TESTIMONIALS FROM THE CLASS OF 2024
When you work with Veena, you have an opportunity to work with someone who is attentive and will go the extra mile and do research to make sure that you can find success when applying to college. I got a better understanding of what exactly I needed to do in order to be a strong candidate. I received lots of guidance and support in choosing my classes, creating summer programs, putting together brag sheets for letters of recommendation, and writing strong, well-researched essays. I enjoyed receiving attention to my personal needs and knowing that if I had a question it wouldn’t take long to receive a proper answer.
Thanks, Veena, for taking my son through his planning—be it courses, summer actions, or just ad hoc questions. It has given him a sense of independence and confidence. You have been so helpful in making him and us understand the application process and planning. Our son fully trusted you, given your experience and the time you took to answer all of his questions. You helped our son become more independent and confident throughout this process. We loved working with you!
With Veena’s guidance, I was able to put together amazing essays, prepare for college and interviews, and submit strong applications for admission. I am so grateful for her help.

I am grateful for all that Veena has done to guide me through the college admissions process.
Veena helped me navigate and understand the process throughout the year and always responded quickly to concerns and questions.

She helped me pace myself during the process and finish applications early, which immensely relieved my anxiety. I enjoyed talking through options and ideas for essays and submitting my applications with Veena the most! Thank you so much for everything you’ve done throughout this process. I feel that I genuinely couldn’t have done it without you!
Veena was helpful in describing the projects that I was doing and pushing me to pursue some independent projects as well. With her assistance, I was able to keep up with deadlines and find topics to write about for my essays through her brainstorming exercises. I took away a lot of writing skills. I enjoyed all the interactions together. I appreciate all the help and am so excited to start college!
Veena greatly helped me keep organized and find things easily. She created a great college list that had everything I could ask for: academic, social, price, location, and future internships. I am grateful for all the work you do to help relieve my anxiety when looking at colleges and figuring out how the college application works for those said colleges. You helped me with summer opportunities with online courses and animation competitions. Veena gave me great feedback on my essays, so I was able to feel confident about them. I was able to tell my story the way I wanted. I appreciate all that you have done for me and my family.
Veena opened me up to opportunities during the summer, along with extra coursework to add to my applications. I was very happy with my Personal Statement because it showed different aspects of me. I was able to learn more about myself throughout the process because I now see how others see me — I attribute this to my sessions with Veena. I enjoyed how supportive Veena was throughout the whole process.
Veena helped me highlight my strengths in my coursework, activities, and opportunities and pushed me to apply myself and stay on track. Given my tendency to procrastinate, Veena positively encouraged me to stay on track and complete my essays and applications well before the deadlines. She helped me brainstorm really unique essays — finding essay topics on my own seemed overwhelming.
If you are unsure about how to navigate the college process or don’t have a clear plan for your high school activities and coursework, Veena will be a great help in educating you and guiding you.
It is clear to me that Veena was a huge part of the success I had in the college admissions journey. She is the best counselor one can have because of the way she works with students. It was very nice to be able to share my passions and goals with Veena during this process since she always seemed excited about any new things I was doing. She pushed me to stay on top of tasks and worked one-on-one to help me through the process. She guided me and definitely motivated me to work hard and stay on task. The guidance and knowledge she offered made the whole process much less hectic. I am thrilled with my results.
Working with Veena was a pleasure. Her professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail kept everything on track and calm in our household. When Veena took the lead with my daughter, it took away all my anxiety as I knew she was in incredibly capable hands and could remove myself from the process except when needed.
I will always recommend Veena to other families as a true leader in the college admissions process.
