Tropp Educational Consulting, College Advising - Trumbull, Connecticut

Heidi G.

We will be eternally grateful for the care and support Lauren showered upon our daughter during her college search. From the initial intake, which inspired our daughter to think about what she really wanted out of college, to guiding us on where to look, to the etiquette while visiting schools, to tips on the application process…Lauren’s help was invaluable.

When we started with Tropp Educational Consulting, we had no idea that we would also be getting the knowledge and experience of Lauren’s entire consortium of college admission professionals. She was able to answer questions on any aspect of the process…be it deadlines, portfolios, or scholarships.

Lauren’s guidance for the essay was exceptional. She was careful not to interfere with the writer’s process, and has an amazing way of identifying and shining a light on the best parts. She would read drafts and make a note of “that’s a great thought, how about building on that?”

Not long ago, we were quite nervous about our daughter getting into a college, but she has been accepted to eighteen schools, every one she applied to! Many were free applications earned through campus visits, which Lauren taught us how to make the most out of. Our daughter was inspired to visit schools that fit her, and to keep in touch with admission officers. She has received tens of thousands of dollars in scholarship offers, and has many great choices including her reach school.

Lauren was frank with us, there were some schools we considered that she thought were not the best fit for our daughter…and we realized she was correct upon visiting these schools.

When I was frightened or unsure during this process, I felt like I could reach out to Lauren at any time. She always gave us a fast response, and would often reach out to her consortium if our concern needed a specialist.

Lauren was never pushy, she gave us advice when we needed it. We always knew Lauren had our daughter’s best interests at heart. Lauren found schools that are at the very top of our daughter’s list of many choices.

For this reason, among many, we plan to use her again for our son who is a sophomore in high school. I’m excited about the intake form inspiring him to think about what he wants for his future. I love that it’s not us parents who fill them out, but the student.

Employing Tropp Educational Consulting was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made for our daughter. I’m honored to recommend Lauren because she provides an exceptional and professional service. A+++++
