Students and Parents say:

  • "I chose Olivia because she brought the insight, expertise and best practices that I needed to help my kids and still have time to work a full-time job. Olivia brought structure to how my kids should think about the types of school and the majors they should explore. She was tremendously helpful in deciphering the financial aid black hole for me and my husband. I love her collaborative approach with my kids and us parents. Working with Olivia helped open up opportunities, lessen the stress and even made the application process a little bit fun. I've already recommended Olivia to all my friends with college bound kids. You and your kids will be glad you decided to work with Olivia!!"

  • “Our family could not possibly be happier with Nicole and On My Way Consulting! Having a private college counselor removed me and my husband 100% from the stresses of the college application process, and allowed us to preserve our excellent relationship with our son (who is easily stressed out!). It was unbelievably helpful to have an expert telling our kid exactly what he needed to do and when, so we never had to nag him…not even once! Nicole was able to peak our son’s interest in schools that he turned down when WE recommended them. She made the process fun and enjoyable for our boy, and we are SO very grateful..."

    – Ellen, parent

  • “My daughter had an excellent experience working with Julie. Julie’s patience and compassion were exactly what my daughter needed to help calm her anxiety and emotions around the college application process. Julie provided much more than just knowledge and expertise about the process; she was a calm and caring adult who helped guide my daughter through both the logistical and emotional experience of the college admission process. We were thrilled that my daughter was accepted into her top choice college. I cannot recommend Julie highly enough!”

  • “Priscilla was instrumental in helping our granddaughter navigate the college application process. She provided excellent advice, helpful handouts and quality resources for financial aid. Working with her was seamless. She was very accessible for follow-up questions and her expansive knowledge of the academic options for students, combined with her candor and experience make working with her an exercise in success.”
