From Our Students

By far, Campus Bound was the best thing my parents have ever done for me as a student."
         Lindsey, now at University of Missouri, Columbia

“Campus Bound helped me discover which colleges were the best fits for me and which ones were the best to apply to. I found my counselor extremely helpful and she continuously offered great advice. I would strongly recommend Campus Bound to a friend or family member.”

          Jonathan, sophomore at Colby-Sawyer College

“Meredith was an incredible help during the college application process. I can't imagine doing it any other way considering the amount of help she provided. Whether it was a quick question that I needed answered or a struggling essay, Meredith always made time for me and my questions. She made the process interesting and less intimidating and kept me on top of all my deadlines, something my parents aren't even capable of.”
          Mary Kate, recent Campus Bound alum

“It has probably been the best thing I have done in the college search process. With all of my other school work, Campus Bound made the process so much easier and I am very glad I got the help from them.”
          James, Bently College

“I thought that Meredith helped to make the college process very smooth. I never felt stressed at all about applying to colleges, and never had fights with my parents about deadlines because of this."
          Marianne, freshman at Salve Regina University

“Greg Nevader was a huge help throughout this process. He was very helpful when it came to picking out the appropriate colleges, preparing me for interviews, helping me find a good SAT tutor, giving me feedback on my applications and overall putting me at ease with the process. I truly believe that I would not have been as successful without his help. I know that my chances of acceptance have increased by working with Greg. I can't imagine where I would be without his guidance throughout this process. Greg really took the time to get to know me personally which was very helpful when it came to helping me pick the right colleges targeted to my interests and goals. There are some colleges that I'm applying to that I never would have found out about otherwise. Greg always responded to my frequent emails and made himself available. Greg also amazed me with how much he knew about every college-more than just their board scores, he knew specific information about the dynamics of the student body, demographics of the surrounding area etc. I would recommend the Campus Bound program to anyone I know. “
          Jennifer, attending Bard College in the fall

While all of my friends were stressing out about their decisions, I felt on track throughout the entire process.

          Gail, parent of an Elon University student
