WHAT APPLICANTS ARE SAYING

Moses Xu, Cornell University

“What led me to work with Mr. Carter was his dedication to meet with me in person; to have zoom calls with me lasting through midnight; and being excited and supportive for whatever passion project I was trying to lead. Mr. Carter is more than a typical college advisor, but a mentor that guides one through their life and leads them to find their passion and goals. Then, he also has the knowledge and experience to help his students to achieve their goals, doing what they love.”

Juan Quezada, WAKE FOREST

“Mr. Carter guided me when I didn’t even know where to start. The application process takes more time than what a person could think before starting all of this. He was able to make the process quicker and easier for me. …. Without him, I would not have completed half as many applications. As an international student, his knowledge and experience helped me be more confident about myself and create the best essays I could possibly write about myself.”

“Working with Mr. Carter was a huge part of my application process. He provided thoughtful advice on my extracurricular activities and helped me showcase them in a most meaningful way. His guidance on my essays allowed me to refine my ideas and express my voice more clearly. He also guided me through the college application process, as well as college alumni interviews, ensuring that I stayed organized and confident. His support made a huge difference to me, and I am grateful for his help.”

Damian Guichard, Boston University

“Being an international student, I had no idea of the application process for American schools. Danny guided me through the entire process and made it clear for me and my parents. His help with writing essays, selecting schools and more was excellent. But apart from being a great college counselor, Danny was always there to help me by being positive when I felt sad or stressed. Beyond his guidance, our many conversations about history, science, and life helped me see Danny as a friend. I truly recommend him.”

Ruogu Li, RPI

“Before I met Mr. Carter, I knew nothing about the US application process. I dreamed of attending a prestigious school, yet struggled with self-discipline and career choice. Through Mr. Carter's guidance, I was able to understand myself better. In turn, I was able to realize the importance of finding a place that fits me. Mr. Carter explained the why more than the what. When I was struggling with my supplemental essays, he spent all day at a coffee shop sitting patiently next to me while helping me write and edit my essays. Mr. Carter has been a great mentor and a meaningful part of my life.”

Maggie Monday, Northwestern

“Danny…devoted his time to artfully guiding me through the college application and decision process. He provided thought provoking questions that helped me reflect deeply on my essays and their intentions, ultimately helping me secure admission to top universities including Stanford, Northwestern, UCLA, and Emory. His knowledge of the inner workings of the higher education system is simply unmatched. He spent many an hour on Zoom with me offering insight and patiently listening as I made my final college decision and was always an email away if I had any questions.”
