As a mother of two college students, I’ve also experienced the admissions process from the parent’s perspective. I understand the stress, the pressure, and the uncertainty that often comes with it. I’ve also seen firsthand how different each student's path can be—even within the same household. My older son faced significant peer pressure to attend a prestigious college. While that may be the right fit for some, I encouraged him to focus on what mattered most: finding a school that aligned with his values, goals, and personality. That decision led to greater clarity, confidence, and ultimately, success. My younger son’s journey was entirely different. As a hands-on learner with ADHD and a specific academic interest, he needed a college environment that would truly support his learning style and personal needs. Finding the right fit for him meant focusing on schools that offered the resources and support systems necessary for him to thrive.

These personal experiences have strengthened my commitment to helping each student find their ideal path, one that’s not dictated by rankings or prestige, but by fit, opportunity, and purpose. At My Future Connect College Consulting, I’m here to provide compassionate, expert guidance through every step of the college admissions process. Whether your student is just beginning to explore options or is ready to apply, I’m dedicated to helping them move forward with clarity and confidence.
