"Hildie was a wonderful guide, adviser and motivator for our daughter. She is extremely knowledgable about the college market and has insight from her experience that is not generally available. She pushed our daughter hard to represent all of the best that she had to offer, while making sure that she still remained true to her "authentic" self. Hildie is kind, funny and encouraging while also being tirelessly hard-working, honest and critical when needed. Our daughter was accepted to her ED school and we are certain that Hildie played a part in that success." Parent of Tufts Student

“Now that the decision day is behind us and Adam has decided where he wants to spend the next 4 years, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to Hildie for being instrumental in preparing Adam for the college application process, as well as guiding him and keeping him motivated through it all. They took the time to identify and understand his strengths and interests and direct them towards the universities that would best support and nurture them. When it was time to apply, Hildie gave Adam plenty of personal attention and kept him accountable so that his applications were completed thoughtfully, thoroughly and well in advance of deadlines. Adam was accepted to all of his top choices, and even after all the good news came in Hildie was there to help Adam and our family evaluate the options so that we could all feel confident about this very important decision. I highly recommend Hildie’s exceptional college counseling to any student and family looking towards the future of a child’s academic career.” Parent University of Miami

Hildie took her time with us and gave us great personal attention from narrowing down the school list to many, many rewrites of the personal essay and supplemental essays my daughter had to write.

She was amazing all along - college research, essay, resume, reminding us of deadlines for forms, teacher letters, applications and giving tips and recommendations. Hildie is very professional and dedicated and is easy and fun to work with. Our son Reed likes her a lot too, she figured out how to get the best out of him, and yesterday he got his acceptance letter from Marist, his #1 choice College with a scholarship. Yes, she really empowered Reed to succeed. I would recommend Hildie to ANYONE !! Job well done!" Parent

"Hildie Steiner is a phenomenal woman. The first time I met her, I broke down in tears because I was so overwhelmed by my feelings of confusion and self-doubt surrounding the college application process. Hildie set me straight, telling me to breathe and to take care of myself, and that we would tackle the college process together. Hildie gave me the guidance I needed to write a great college essay and to finish my first set of applications in a timely manner. She also made time for me despite her busy schedule, answering all of my (numerous) questions, editing all of my essays, and driving over an hour to help me fine-tune my Common App profile. I am excited to have Hildie’s guidance for the remainder of my applications. I truly believe that she is the best college counselor out there. If you are a student in need of college application support or a parent looking to help your student, give Hildie a call. She will be ready to help with  great advice, an awesome game plan, and as always, a High Five." Student Johns Hopkins University
