Clients' Testimonials about Zee

I could not have asked for a better experience! I had such a wonderful time working with both my counselor Miracle and my essay coach Zee. I received insurmountable assistance from both individuals, and the work we completed together helped me tremendously. As the first child of three to go to college, applications are incredibly daunting, especially considering how the application process has changed over the past decade. The meetings I had with specialists and my own counselor broke down the application process into approachable pieces that inevitably led to my acceptance at the University of Illinois. From the Common App to post-acceptance scholarship applications, HelloCollege was there when I needed it and I will forever be grateful!
