We wanted to hire a college admissions counselor because we know that applying to college is complex and competitive. We had worked briefly with another college
consulting service and it seemed there was little direct contact with our students. In addition, they had only a superficial understanding of the application process.
Diane has a proven track record of helping students identify and get accepted to their top choice schools.
Diane’s services exceeded our expectations. At the outset, she provided a meaningful and substantive relationship with our children creating a strong sense of trust.
She provided our children superb coaching and guided them step-by-step through the college admissions process. Throughout the process, she nurtured and helped
grow our children’s professionalism and maturity. Our students spent countless hours with Diane discussing high school course selection, researching colleges,
brainstorming essay topics, proofreading applications and reviewing essays. She helped them prepare for interviews and assisted in presenting themselves via their resume.

We are thrilled with our daughter’s experience with Diane Cohen, and could not imagine going through this process again without her expertise and guidance.
Diane took great pains to connect with our daughter and get to know her goals, personality, strengths and weaknesses. Diane’s understanding of a vast array of
colleges and their offerings helped craft a targeted, unique approach to ensure our student’s success and ultimate acceptance at her dream school. The best part
was that Diane kept the process on-track and on-time, and minimized the stress between us and our child. Truly, Diane has a phenomenal in-depth understanding of
the college admission and application process - from interviews to available scholarships, required rigor and individual academic programs. I only wish we had started
with Diane from the beginning of our student’s high school career! It really is a process that should begin from day one of your child’s high school enrollment.
That being said - we began the spring of our student’s Junior year of high school, and couldn’t be happier with Diane, the process and the final results.

I started working with Mrs. Cohen at the end of my sophomore year, and I don't know how I would have survived junior or senior year without her! She helped me balance my class load, prioritize my activities and routinely checked up on me to make sure everything was going well. When it came to college essay time, she made sure I was choosing my topics to best reflect myself, suggested schools and programs that fit my interests and held me to a schedule for submitting applications so that I wasn't like all of my other stressed-out classmates. Having been admitted to several selective schools with significant scholarship money at many, I had several choices as I weighed the cost to attend. As I narrowed my options, Mrs. Cohen reviewed the pros and cons of each, and, ultimately, she was the person I consulted prior to sending my deposit. I am thankful to her for guiding me through this process and answering questions before I could even ask them. I will recommend every underclassman I know to strongly consider working with her through the college admissions process. (Student attending Georgia Institute of Technology)
Mrs. Cohen has offered invaluable support for me and my family throughout the college search and application process. She not only helped tremendously with editing and finalizing my essays, but she put my mom's anxious mind at ease during some pretty stressful deadlines. I really appreciate her help, and I know that I could not have gotten to go to my dream school without her. (Student attending University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill)
Mrs. Cohen was a tremendous help and incredible support system during the entire college application process. She helped alleviate a lot of my stress and frustration through productive one-on-one counseling sessions, as well as through invaluable advice she gave from her experiences. From fine-tuning my resume to guiding me to write essays that I am still incredibly proud of to this day, Mrs. Cohen helped me create a holistic application that highlighted my strengths. Under Mrs. Cohen’s guidance, I was able to get into my dream college, and I cannot express my gratitude enough. (Student attending Georgetown University Walsh School of Foreign Affairs)
I know a big part of my acceptance was due to my essays, which Mrs. Cohen helped me edit and perfect. I'm so happy with my decision, and I move forward confident in my abilities thanks to the help I received from Mrs. Cohen. If, like me, you need someone to keep you on track, tell it like it is, and ensure that you end the college admissions process with no regrets (no matter where you are admitted or denied), then I wholeheartedly recommend Mrs. Cohen! (Student attending the University of Virginia)
"Ms. Cohen helped me find my story, play up my strengths, and not only guided me to finding the school for me, but made it an attainable goal. Often, the college process gets convoluted with different sources saying conflicting advice but having Ms. Cohen as a knowledgeable resource made the process smooth and surmountable. However what set the experience apart was that she truly took the time to get to know me so that her guidance was tailored to my needs. Not only did she ensure I put my best foot forward to be admitted into my top school, but she helped me grow as a person so that I can succeed past the college admission process." (Student admitted to Vanderbilt)
