Every acceptance letter has a story behind it.

I appreciated the fact that in the essay writing process, there was editing, but not so much that it took away from what I had originally intended to write. CollegeCore strives to let your own voice do the work.

CollegeCore also helped me immensely while narrowing down the list of colleges I would apply to, giving detailed information about each of the institutions we were considering. This came with clear instructions telling me about the various documents each college would require and how the application process differs slightly for each college.

Working with CollegeCore was most certainly the right decision for me.

I was pleasantly surprised by how approachable the entire CollegeCore Team was – even at 2 AM – which was crucial for me to meet my deadlines during the college application process. Despite my hectic and demanding schedule, the CollegeCore team was more than willing to work around my time table. And even when I wasn’t able to work on a particular task, Sonu Ma’am’s repeated phone calls and reminders ensured that I submitted it on time.

One thing that stood out about CollegeCore was how the entire team came together in a brainstorming session to guide me through writing an essay. Urvashi Ma’am’s fantastic idea about my CommonApp essay played a key role in developing my overall application.

I can’t thank CollegeCore enough for their support and guidance, for having made the application process a truly wonderful experience.

I got to know about Collegecore in the middle of 11th grade. I hadn’t thought of studying abroad until I joined an international IB curriculum school in 11th grade and by the time I contacted Collegecore, I had become very pessimistic about my college application. Everyone around me had been planning and working on their application since 9th grade and had already attempted standardised tests and APs while I was totally lost and disconcerted.

But gaining guidance from Anu Ma’am and Urvashi Ma’am put me at ease instantly. Getting an application timeline tailor-made for me was extremely helpful since I finally had a clear path in front of me and I was soon on par with my colleagues.

Throughout the process, I would often underestimate myself and was very indecisive. In such circumstances, the moral support I received from Ms Anu proved to be invaluable. Several times on call, she would address the same concerns I had again and again and reassure that I was good enough. I would often change my essays a day before the deadline, but the Collegecore team was kind enough to still check them and provide instant feedback. If it wasn’t for their patience and Miss Anu’s faith in me, I probably wouldn’t have had the courage to ED to my dream university.

I want to thank Anu Ma’am, Urvashi Ma’am and the team of editors at Collegecore for the time, effort and concern they put into my application.

The best part about CollegeCore is how systemised and organised it is. My counselor, Anu ma’am kept me on track with deadlines. It is easy to get lost in the maze of essays required for every university and submitting them before the deadline. With Anu and Urvashi maam’s help, I was able to write essays that were not just impressive but a reflection of my passions and interests.

I enjoyed working with everyone at CollegeCore and would recommend it to anyone aspiring for a Tier 1 university!

The staff of CollegeCore has been extremely helpful and compassionate with making sure that I can present my best self not only to the colleges I have applied to, but also to myself and the people around me. They have made me realize my potential and worth, which will be helpful in the long run. Even though we were not in the same country, thanks to the guidance and support of CollegeCore, I have got admissions in almost every college I’ve applied to.

A friend recently asked me to brief him about the US admissions process. It was only when I recounted the things I had done in the past year to him, did I realize how daunting the US application system could be. There are so many small yet significant details that a student could miss out on. The unnerving essays to write that I could not have withstood without the brainstorming sessions at CollegeCore. As I followed CollegeCore’s simple and efficient step-wise process, I saw that I was always 2 steps ahead of other students in my class.

In 11th I had made up my mind to study in the US. At the time, seeing other people’s long CV’s made me wonder whether I had enough time to pull through to one of my dream colleges. I had multiple ideas that I wished to pursue simultaneously, but so little time. Had I not met Urvashi ma’am and Simerna ma’am at the start of 12th, I am sure I would have given up. But they really helped me streamline my thoughts, jotting them down in points, weighing the importance they would have on my application, and ultimately helping me build a strong application that got me into some of my dream schools, as well as the Trustee scholars program at Boston University.

Through the late night calls and the constant care and support, CollegeCore transformed the intimidating application into a fun and memorable process, and the essays into a means for honing my ability to express myself.

My journey with CollegeCore began in the summer of class 12. Their team provided valuable inputs and guidance in various aspects of college admissions, right from choosing a list of colleges to apply to, and ultimately making that final selection after receiving 11 admission offers.

Urvashi and Simerna ma’am’s easy accessibility, competence, and compassion are their USP. They were perfect with their planning and ensured its timely execution. This helped reduce stress by not allowing several things to pile up before a deadline and thus achieving desired results. They were also prompt in replying to emails.

CollegeCore’s team provided personalised attention whenever needed, such as choosing the right fit college, and the editors’ personalised feedback to essays. The editors’ approval of my essays was very reassuring and boosted my confidence.

Thank you Urvashi Ma’am for helping me attain my goal!

P.S. The coffee was amazing 🙂

At the beginning of the gruesome college application process, my mind was filled with questions. I wanted to find a school that would provide me with excellent facilities and would give me a platform to thrive but also a school whose community was like minded and I could relate to. Finding the right fit hence would’ve been a lot more difficult if it weren’t for Collegecore. Rarely do you find people who are passionate about helping others find their way in life and that too with never ending patience.

At the start of the college application process, Collegecore organized workshops to bring us in the loop with the workings of the process and to make us aware of important dates and deadlines. Furthermore, they held workshops focused on writing honest personal essays and each student was given individual attention. They helped navigate through what each student wanted in a college and also helped determined what the best fit would be for their respective majors. I developed a bond while working with everyone at the office and I created a special bond with Sonu ma’am who put up with my constant questioning and was always there for me. The dedication on Collegecore’s part led to me finding my right fit for college at the University of Rochester.

It’s all due to how well Collegecore understood my desire and what I wanted in a school and cooperated with me to make that dream a reality. Their tips on how to prepare for the ACT and prepare a strong application proved to be of great help during the process and i truly believe that I wouldn’t be going where I am if it wasn’t for the Collegecore team. Full of nice, hardworking and dedicated people, this team helped me secure my future and I’m forever thankful to Urvashi ma’am and team.

I remember how the very thought of applying abroad would send me into a frenzy. I used to think about the mountain of applications and essays I would be buried in.

Given my already existing situation of preparing for competitive exams in India, I had almost given up the idea of applying to US. Yet, inspite of all the reluctance, joining College Core turned out to be exactly the right step to help me juggle both the fronts.

My counselor, Anu Ma’am, helped me tackle the process in a systematic manner, constantly guided me at each and every crucial step and patiently helped and motivated me even when I was far behind the schedule.

I can’t thank the Editors enough for keeping up with my nocturnal submissions. I was able to get into colleges like UIUC and Berkeley which wouldn’t have been possible if it wasn’t for their great team.

Thank you CollegeCore for making this process a fun one to work through!

The US College application process can be extremely daunting for an International student; however, CollegeCore ensured that I stayed on top of my testing requirements, Letters of Recommendations, and especially the essays. Despite joining CollegeCore only in September of my senior year of high school, the team at CollegeCore was extremely supportive and polished my application. With the senior year timeline and appropriate deadlines for all the numerous supplemental essays, the entire process was less stressful and I had a clear plan ahead of me. Thank you so much Anu Ma’am and Urvashi Ma’am for always being available and guiding me through this process which has enabled me to gain admission to some of the prestigious universities!

Thank you so much Urvashi ma’am, Sonu ma’am and the entire team of college core education for always being there for me and guiding me throughout the process. Picking up calls even late at night and giving solution to my queries as soon as possible, pushing me to give my best and constantly motivating me has helped me achieve my goal and dream.

Thank you once again ma’am.

Before CollegeCore, I had no idea about the process involved in college applications. But with the constant help and guidance from Urvashi Ma’am and Simerna Ma’am, I was able to overcome all the obstacles and build a path towards an excellent college.

There came a time when I was juggling work from school, exams, and college applications. It wouldn’t have been possible to navigate my way through all the work if it weren’t for CollegeCore. I was constantly in touch with Simerna Ma’am through Gmail or WhatsApp, and she always helped me by clarifying my doubts while making sure that I filled and submitted my applications on time.

I would also like to thank the editors of CollegeCore, whose feedbacks helped me write beautiful essays.

Working with college core has been a great experience. Anshruta ma’am and Urvashi ma’am have helped me in every part of the application process. Applying to universities is an arduous process with the SATs, college essays, profile building and much more but CollegeCore made it feel like a breeze which helped me focus more on schoolwork. I am very grateful to CollegeCore for getting me into my dream college.

Through the month and a half of my application procedure, CollegeCore was a constant and vital support base. The assistance I received on my essays was top notch and everyone involved in the process really pushed my application to another level. Thank you!

I liked how the essays weren’t entirely written by a professional, instead only corrected by one. It helps the student better perform in an interview, if there is any, as they know what they are writing about and read it over and over again. What was also great was how I was able to come to the office myself for real life interview practice sessions as well as to fill in my application online, which I found difficult to do on my own at home.

The thing I liked most about CollegeCore was that all the counsellors were so warm and helping and made you feel like a part of their family. They all invested their time in me personally and helped me to meet all of my deadlines. Even after getting a bad SAT score, they didn’t let me feel dejected and immediately started working on an alternate course of action. With CollegeCore I attained the confidence to step out and apply and even get in to amazing schools.

CollegeCore guided me well in terms of the courses to which I could apply and suggested various activities that could enhance my CV. I was nervous about the interview at Ashoka University but after the mock interviews that Urvashi ma’am conducted really boosted my confidence.

College Core’s team of advisors were very responsive in terms of helping and supporting my son Utkarsh during his application process. The real contribution was from the editorial team in essay writing, which helped Utkarsh showcase his all round skills in the form of well-rounded essays. The team was professional and had a very good work ethic and ensured Utkarsh did not deviate from following all the tasks during his application process. A job well done to help Utkarsh get into his dream school.

The entire experience with CollegeCore was a great experience. I feel lucky to have such patient and helping councellor who helped me to build my profile and guide me at every step of the application. One of the best part is that no matter what happens you always keep us motivated and give us lot of hope.

The most important aspect was the ability of the councellors to understand the potential of the students and make them realize it. The ease of working together and guidance provided was instrumental in achieving optimum results.

I liked everything since the beginning of enrollment with College Core. Their support at every step of college application process was encouraging, soothing and motivating. They helped at every step to make important decisions. They always answered my calls and talking to them has always guided me through right course of action.

You all practically forced me and Anshu to complete all requirements by giving deadlines for everything. And your patience was really appreciated. Your team in total and specially Charu went really out of the way helping me wherever I got stuck , whether it was ACT FORM or any technical problem because of my ignorance. And Urvashi perfectly guided in putting name of universities . I really feel Anshu got into UNC only because of Urvashi and Charu and team college core . Thanks dear all . Feel indebted.

I think any one who intends to send their child abroad Urvashi and her team are the best at it. They have immense knowledge and will guide the student to reach his goal.

They were times when I completely gave it up but Sugandha motivated me and kept on doing the necessary paper work. Even when I had thought nothing can workout for us . To our surprise it was blessing in disguise that my son, Shawrya got an offer letter from two universities in Canada.

I thank them from the bottom of my heart. It means a lot to me.

Thank you very much to the entire team for guiding Manav. I remember taking him to a few councellers before we came to CollegeCore, the way Urvashi spoke with him, made things look so achievable for him, the approach was so positive that he had no doubt.

What I liked the most was the availability of the councelors be it anytime of the day, the prompt, personalized service and what matters to me most was Manav went through this whole tedious process with ease as his team was all the time with him supporting him.

Thank you very much for making it happen for him, always grateful.
