Quad Education motivated me to complete my college applications. With the help of my counselor, I had the ability to learn more about myself, my strengths, and what I can bring to a college community. Through this program, I grew my interview skills, honed my storytelling abilities, and expanded my academic horizons. I was accepted into four great schools and am so glad Jacque was there to guide me along the way!

I had an excellent experience working with Quad Education! I was connected with a great college counselor who guided me through the complex application process. He helped me discover my strengths and encouraged me to set high educational goals for myself. I'm beyond thankful that I had both him and Quad cheering me on during such an important time in my life.

Working with Quad Education was a tremendous help to me. My advisor helped me with my Common App and supplemental essays and also helped me get the internship I have now. I loved working with Quad because it was so personalized. I got paired with the perfect advisor who studied what I’m interested in; he helped me come up with ideas and made essay writing so much easier. My mom and I chose Quad because of their commitment to personalization and organization, especially with deadlines. So far, I’ve gotten into five colleges and been offered merit scholarships. Working with Quad has truly helped me so much, and I don’t think I would’ve gotten into all these colleges without their help.

I really appreciated how David and the Quad Education team gave feedback on my essays and applications. I felt the advice they gave was timely and geared to me personally. They helped take my applications to the next level by covering the bases of each supplemental essay. Together, we were able to identify and target the colleges that were best suited for me.

I truly enjoyed my experience with Quad Education. I felt supported in the application process and received information helpful for anyone going to college. My consultant, Sarah, encouraged me to be authentic in my essays and was very understanding of my busy schedule. She made it easy to spill my passions and was very kind about areas I needed to improve in. Quad Education helped me get into the schools I applied to with a scholarship, including a full ride and a half ride to two of my top colleges.

We can't thank Quad Education enough for the fantastic guidance and direction in this challenging college process. The mix of big-picture planning has been invaluable, such as discussing how current school choices might impact future med school applications, figuring out the optimal college to apply to through ED, and crafting an excellent list of schools to apply to. I feel that the coaching provided by Rohan and Monica was personalized, persistent, and a very detail-oriented process. They did super well helping my daughter work on deadlines in advance, as much as possible. The editing work had a good match of suggestions, giving her the option to choose or revise. We couldn't have asked for a better team from Quad!

I cannot say enough how happy we are that we chose to work with Quad. When we decided to work with an admissions advisor, we were overwhelmed, stressed, and felt the whole admissions process was too far along to be salvaged. From the moment we met Jacque, the stress was lifted, and the path forward seemed simple and stress-free. My daughter never felt judged by Jacque, and for the first time in a long time, she felt confident and excited about this part of her academic journey. My daughter felt inspired to fine-tune her essays, and Jacque really brought out the best in her during this process. We couldn’t have navigated this process without her, and we are so grateful!

I cannot thank Natalie and the Quad Education team enough for helping me get into my dream school. I genuinely didn't think I would get in, but then I opened up the acceptance letter and immediately started crying because of how happy and surprised I was. Natalie helped me shape my personal essay into everything I wanted it to be. I will be forever thankful to Quad Education for making my dreams come true!

My experience with Quad Education has been nothing short of amazing. Rohan was beyond helpful and encouraging during my pre-college season when I was searching for volunteer hours and studying for the SAT. During application season, Rohan and Monica were outstanding in building my resume and shaping my essays to sound their very best. Their hard work, along with mine, paid off when I was accepted into my dream nursing program!

I got into Case Western Reserve University through Early Decision I, and I couldn’t have done it without my consultant, who made an incredibly daunting task so much simpler for me. Writing has never been one of my strong suits, yet all the advice they gave me helped me improve my essay tenfold, bringing both my personality and creativity to life. I’m thankful to Quad Education for everything they did for me!

I’m not the type who gives out reviews. However, when I read the final version of my personal statement and essays, I was blown away by how accurate and concise it was. I’m really happy that I got admitted to Columbia. My brother, who is a rising senior, is also working with Quad now.

"I worked with Katherine through the end-to-end support program and she was fantastic. Extremely responsive and supportive, she went above and beyond to provide helpful feedback on both essays and interview preparation. She is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her. She really came to know my background and narrative extremely well. Her turnaround time was always incredibly efficient, usually within 24 hours. She is genuinely committed to seeing you do well, and she understands the application process deeply, as well as what different programs are looking for."

"I got connected to Quad Education through a friend who had worked with them and gotten accepted to UC Berkeley. From the first call, it was absolutely clear that they are experts on UC Berkeley applications. They know the ins and outs of the process. They provided insights that only an admissions counselor can provide. Got accepted to Cal!"

"Howard's impact on my application essays was extraordinary. Both in helping me with the big picture of the story I was trying to tell, and the final edits and tweaks to make the essay as specific to my target schools as possible, his work was critical to my success. Thanks for all the support!"

"From our initial call, I was impressed by Quad Education's professionalism, sharpness, and eagerness to get started. I never questioned their level of commitment to my success and to leaving no stone unturned. I feel they went above and beyond because the team cares for applicants. They were never been unwilling to schedule a quick call or reply to an email. While many services and counselors talk the talk, Quad Education's team most certainly walks the walk."

"Grace and the Quad Education team were prompt to deliver feedback on overall strategy, essays, and resumes. They will work with you endlessly until you have something you'd be proud to submit. Every base was covered, from developing compelling essays to advice in approaching your recommenders to live interview prep. The result - In addition to Dartmouth and Yale, I was admitted to Princeton, my dream school, with scholarship!"

"I really appreciated how the entire Quad Education team provided guidance that helped me take my applications to the next level but never tried to change my writing style or the essence of what I wanted to portray. They made the application process enjoyable, and even helped me learn more about myself that I will carry with me beyond college. I am so thankful to Quad Education for all of the amazing guidance and would highly recommend working with them!"

"Kate took the time to get to know me as a person. I felt that I was being treated as a friend or a family member. I also met her in person when I was visiting UCLA. She showed me around town and bought me lunch before my interview."

"Quad Education went above and beyond. My coaches even used their personal network to help connect me to college students with similar backgrounds to mine. Most importantly, they were organized, patient, and always available, even at very short notice."

"Thanks to Quad Education's support, I was able to transfer to Stanford. It was such a nerve-wracking process, but finally I'm studying systems engineering at my dream school. Couldn't have done it without Quad Education's admissions officers."

"My coach knew exactly what the admissions committee wants. Such a pleasure to work with Quad Education. Got a full ride to UChicago, which was my dream school."

"I'd give Quad Education a 5 star review without a doubt. I worked with Susan who was an absolute superstar. She has attended both Yale and Harvard, so I had no doubt that her credentials were impeccable. Susan is extremely empathetic and knows exactly what works. She was able to help me stand out even though I am an overrepresented candidate. I am attending Yale in the Fall!"

"Attending Stanford has been my lifelong ambition. And as I'm writing this testimonial, I am proud to say that I have been accepted. Working with Quad Education was the best decision. Yes, I worked hard. It was nose to the grindstone for years. But there is no way I would've been able to crack Stanford without Quad Education's help. Working with them felt like I was working directly with the admissions committee. What a great team of experts!"

"I am Asian American, which meant that there was additional pressure to differentiate myself from the rest of the applicant pool. The admissions committee insights that I got from Quad Education were a game changer. They knew exactly what Penn is looking for. The depth, quality, and relevance of insights was amazing. I'm a freshman at Penn and it is everything I imagined it would be. So grateful that I worked with Quad Education and am able to live this experience."

"Since I was in middle school, it's been my dream to attend an Ivy league school. Quad Education has helped me realize this dream, and for that I couldn't have been more grateful. I'm going to Columbia on a scholarship. The feeling is indescribable, thank you Quad Education."

"I thorougly enjoyed working with Katherine. She took my application to a whole new level. I was able to uncover aspects of my story that I never knew existed. Finally, after all these years of hard work, I've made it to Cornell. Thank you Katherine, and thank you Quad Education!"

"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much! Couldn't have done it without you guys. I'm going to attend Yale. It's a dream come true!"
