The Results Speak! A+

Our son was accepted at every university he applied to, he's a solid student with good extra curriculars....but honestly this was a A+ outcome for him! Hello College was a BIG part of this and kept the steady and kind pressure on him that he wasn't as receptive to from my wife and I. During the process we were honestly not sure how it was progressing and had some doubts....but in the end wow! We highly recommend HC.

Accepted everywhere he applied — what an outcome! We love this. And we completely understand the uncertainty that can come mid-process, so it means a lot that you stuck with it and trusted us. Sometimes that outside nudge is exactly what a student needs to hear it from someone other than mom and dad. Congratulations to your son and the whole family!

Excellent Experience with Leslie Riccio at HelloCollege

We initially thought we could handle the college process alone, but choosing HelloCollege was the best decision we made.

Our son was matched with Leslie Riccio, who was absolute perfection. Leslie brought realistic expectations, patience, humor, and endless encouragement to every Zoom call. She kept our son on track while removing an immense amount of stress from our shoulders. While the student still has to put in the hard work, Leslie and HelloCollege provided ideal guidance to facilitate success. We are truly grateful for Leslie and wish every family could have a advisor and cheerleader like her in their corner!

We are passing this straight to Leslie — she deserves to read every word! Realistic, patient, encouraging, and fun to work with is exactly who we want in our students' corners, and it sounds like she delivered all of that and more. So glad you made the leap and trusted us with such an important process. Congratulations to your son!

My amazing team members

Leslie was AMAZING and I’m so grateful for her. I can’t even put into words how helpful and great she’s been, Elena as well with my essay and my application I was accepted into over 20 colleges. They both pushed me beyond my procrastination even with my busy schedule towards my dream. I appreciate them both so much and wish them and their families the best. Thank you so much for everything, I will never forget this experience and will always recommend to anyone who’s going into their senior year.

The best college counselor, without him we would have been lost!

We had a wonderful experience working with our HelloCollege counselor throughout the college admissions process for our first son. His knowledge of the process is unmatched, and he was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping our son navigate each step with confidence. He provided excellent guidance on school selection, essays, timelines, applications, and overall strategy, and without his insight, we do not believe our son would have had the confidence or direction to select the elite college that was ultimately the right fit for him. We especially appreciated his personalized approach, clear communication, and ability to make the entire process feel much less overwhelming for our family. Because of that positive experience, we are now using HelloCollege again and the same counselor for our younger son. We highly recommend him to any family looking for thoughtful, knowledgeable, and professional college counseling support.

Respuesta de HelloCollege

The fact that you came back for your younger son says everything — thank you so much! Helping your older son find the right elite college with confidence was a team effort, and we are thrilled it made such a lasting impression. We look forward to making the process just as smooth and rewarding the second time around. Your family is in great hands!

Great experience

I had a great experience with HelloCollege and all their resources from counseling to application prep. Leslie, my counselor, was so easy to talk to and connect. We had no problem getting along and we were paired perfectly. My writing coach, Elena, was so helpful in brainstorming and editing my essays. All their services being remote made it very flexible and easy to adapt with my schedule.

Excellent guidance, helped us stay ahead of schedule. Highly recommended.

Working with Hello College as a company and Leslie Riccio, in particular, as our first point of contact was great. It helped our family stay organized. The help & guidance, we received on shortlisting colleges, and guidance on college essays, helped us stay on top of the college deadlines. So much so that we finished all applications before early application deadline of Nov 01, and went on a family trip while other students in our circle were sweating out to meet college deadlines. Highly recommended, especially if your child isn't always on top of everything.

A family trip before the November deadline — that is what staying ahead of the process looks like! Leslie and the team will love hearing this. Finishing early and stress-free is always the goal, and we are so glad your family got to experience that. Thank you for the recommendation!

I really enjoyed my experience and connected with my essay coach counselor on a more friendship level.

I really enjoyed my experience and feel it would have been impossible for me to get all that work done without Hello College’s guidance. I also enjoyed the editing app becuase it was simple to use and made edits obvious. I also really enjoyed working with Mr. Salazar and Mrs. Leslie becuase they were always so helpful and kind to me even when I would text them last minute.

Great experience with Hello College

We had a great experience with the Hello College team throughout the college application process. The essay coaching, test enhancement, application guidance, and just helping our daughter stay on task during a lengthy application process was so helpful. Every step was clearly laid out and they helped meet each checkpoint. Our daughter’s hard work, Hello College’s expertise, and a little bit of luck helped her get accepted to her top program and many other competitive schools.
