Johns Hopkins ‘25
"The university application process is difficult to navigate without guidance. I had set an ambitious academic goal to get into Hopkins - my dream school. I had a strong rooted “why” and had built a foundation to base my application, but still struggled to figure out which steps to take, which path to choose to achieve that goal. Thankfully, the incredible counsellors at Alma Mater helped me piece every aspect of my application together in the most purposeful and unique way - one that showcased what made me stand out as a student. That’s what I love the most about working with Alma Mater - the individual approach that focuses on a student’s uniqueness, genuine passions and greatest contribution.
I’m so grateful for the amazing support system, the meaningful pieces of advice and the incredibly valuable guidance I gained through working with my counselor. She truly believed in me and, in moments of doubt, that motivated me to believe in myself too. As students, high school seniors with wild dreams and big goals, we all need that - someone who, during such a stressful season in our lives, believes in our ability to succeed and actively, purposefully, and meaningfully helps us do so."
Colombia University '25
"The senior year is probably one of the most stressful and crucial years in a teenager’s life. Having had the chance to be aided by Alma Mater’s awesome team was one of the greatest opportunities I could have dreamed of. I got into Columbia University!! Pamela, Corinne, and their team were by my side, step by step. Whether it was to reassure my parent’s anxiety of seeing their son flying to the US, or choosing the university that would suit my aspirations, Alma Mater angels were always a phone call away at any time of the day and even during the night.
Alma Mater's very special and personalized process gave me a clear structure, vital to any 17-year old whose life is spinning their junior year. Together, we identified my strengths, my weaknesses along with my objectives and built up a strong strategy. Imagine my face when, on March 23rd, locked into my room because of Covid, I called Pamela and read her the Columbia Admission’s email that would change my life and my destiny forever."
