Potomac really helped me organize my schedules and essay questions for each school! I felt like the pacing of essay-writing pushed me to stay on top of my work, yet was still reasonable and allowed me to think through and reflect deeply on my life so far. I was able to write every single application before the early ones were due, and Potomac’s support was a large part in keeping me motivated and on task!

Potomac’s college admissions service was excellent for two major reasons: first, they made sure I was on schedule for the whole process, and second, it was great being able to vet ideas and get advice from a person experienced with college admissions. They were at my side through the whole journey.

I thought this was an incredibly helpful service. Ms. Elisa helped me throughout my entire application cycle. From working together on selecting a list of colleges to proofreading my online forms, Ms. Elisa never stopped until she believed all of my applications were the best they could be. I would definitely recommend her to anyone applying to college because she makes the process so much more manageable.

As an international student, I was completely unfamiliar with the American college admission process. Ms. Elisa was integral at every single step. We researched different programs and planned out my college visits. She also helped me reach out to my high school teachers for letters of recommendation. She reminded me to order and send my standardized test scores, edited my essays, supplements, and resumes, and proofread every single one of my applications. In the end, I got into my dream school: Northwestern University.

I feel that my applications are a hundred times better and so much stronger.
