TESTIMONIALS
"Diljeet was amazing all throughout the college application process. She was on call whenever we needed and answered all of our questions in a quick and timely manner. Diljeet truly went beyond what I expected from a college counselor. She was as invested in my success as my parents. One of the best things about Diljeet's guidance was that she never sugar-coated anything and was straightforward in telling us our chances, what we had to do, and virtually anything else we needed to know. If I had to go back to the start of the application season, I would easily choose Diljeet to be my college counselor again."

"Diljeet is very passionate about helping students with their college planning. She takes great interest in understanding her students' interests and strengths and helps them make informed decision. It is very easy for students to get influenced by others but she makes sure they do not rush into making decisions. She works very hard and her passion clearly shows in all her actions and words."

"She's very organized, patient, articulate, upfront, honest, sincere and persevering. She clearly went above and beyond our expectations. We were provided very useful information in our sessions. At one time, she was very flexible in extending our session time concluding it at a good end point with well defined next steps. Its an art to extract relevant information from a teenager and she clearly excels at it! She also provides us with guidance and information on how our child can excel in current extracurricular activities as well as explore new areas of interest. We look forward to our journey together with her enriching and informative counseling services."

"I’ll admit that I was initially against the idea of hiring a counselor. However, Mrs. Kaur has proven herself to my family and I that she does much more than edit essays and provide academic guidance. I feel quite comfortable conversing with her and sharing personal details about my life because of her friendly, understanding approach to dealing with my issues. She has patiently led me through participating in passion-related courses/summer programs, narrowed down a list of colleges I’d fit in well at, and revised many of my essays to ensure that colleges saw my full character without sugar-coating her insight. Furthermore, she has frequently checked in with me even after the application process has ended and given me advice that ultimately led me to make the correct decision between the two university choices I was considering. I am very grateful for her and would recommend Mrs. Kaur to any student looking for support with high school success and college admissions."

"Ms. D patiently helped me turn my life experiences and stories into potential college application essays. She was a great help throughout the whole application process and made the experience significantly less daunting. Her candid remarks and keen insight were very valuable."

"She is straightforward and direct, and she always tries to help you and give you suggestions, whether it be regarding academics or extracurriculars. She truly wants what is best for you, and she helps you to discover your own path."

"Application process for admission into a top university is very taxing, but is also often the only way for most students to fulfill their long-standing dreams. Therefore, it is very important to have a mentor who not only is very professional, but also cares for your dreams as much as you do. In Diljeet, I found someone exactly like this. Being an international student applying primarily to universities in the US, I was faced with a lot of uncertainties. But the way Diljeet counseled me through the process was impeccable. Let it be coming up with the best list of universities for me, helping me organize my essays and other documents such that they make an impact, or using her contacts to accurately evaluate my profile, she was incredible in everything she did. I will always be grateful to her for helping me get into a top ranked university that I had previously thought was way out of my reach."

"Mrs. Kaur provided me with the support I didn't realize I would need during high school and the college application process. She works based on your expectations and aspirations for the future and provides you with so many resources to succeed. I learned to push myself for success and truly how much hard work and discipline I would need to follow her plans. Mrs. Kaur's blunt honesty during the process comes not from a place of harshness but because she seeks the best for you. Her college essay assistance is extremely thorough and detailed, as are the academic plans she creates for students. I would recommend Mrs. Kaur to any student who is applying and seeks the best outcome of their high school experience."

"Applying to mulitple colleges wasn’t easy. I wrote three different applications for over fifteen different schools both in and out of state. I could not have submitted the amount of applications I did without Ms. Kaur’s constant push. She made sure I had drafts written on time and constantly reminded me with personal calls and tons of emails. She checked on my progress, gave meaningful suggestions, and always made it clear that she was available to talk. She was tough when I didn’t meet certain deadlines and fulfill my half of the agreement, but that made me certain that she really CARED. Knowing that gave me the confidence to express myself fully to colleges and submit only the most high-quality applications. "

"Diljeet has helped me in unimaginable ways with my applications and without her structured methods, dedication, and straightforward feedback, I would definitely not have received the offers I have on hand today. Not only did she help me craft and finalize my essays and applications, but she also helped me come up with a great college list that was both practical and beneficial towards my needs, goals, and interests. Her thorough and meaningful process, whether it was finalizing a college list that truly fit my personality, or meticulously reviewing every single one of my essay drafts, has set me up for success through college and beyond. Overall, I feel extremely grateful to have worked with her, and I would refer her to anyone applying to college."

Based on the major, she customized an achievable plan with the goal of getting my daughter admitted to the best fit school, and she spent a lot of time in the college selection process. She was willing to spend extra hours in perfecting all sections of the college application. She was very diligent in follow ups, and we are glad our friends referred to her."

"When I first started high school, I was unsure of how to navigate the course selection and make sure that I selected the best courses to prepare me for college. Mrs. Diljeet Kaur made sure that I was aware of the classes that I needed to take and how to make sure that I demonstrated rigor with my course selection each year. When it came time to apply for colleges, she was there every step of the way, providing a plan for me to make sure that I was able to meet all deadlines for the colleges that I applied to. Mrs. Kaur spent many hours reviewing my essays and my applications to help me succeed. I ended up getting into my first-choice college as an Early Decision admit with her help. I am very thankful for her help and support throughout the years."

"Our sincere thanks to you for counseling our daughter. You were very helpful in organizing applications and deadlines. It was useful to understand the importance of grades, various school clubs, and sports activities in the application process. Introspecting on ideas for essays in a staged manner, giving continuous feedback, and cleaning them up were very helpful."

"Diljeet truly enjoys her work and gives a lot of attention to her students. She was a charismatic mentor to my child. She was firm yet soft so it was hard for my procrastinator/explorer child to slack and not follow the norms of the application process. She was always on top of things so it was a peace of mind for me. I am very happy with the result and would recommend her to all my near and dear ones."

She makes sure to take careful input on each student’s concerns and questions and is able to give great feedback. She was able to guide me through the major selection process along with finding what best suits me throughout my years. The balance she made sure I achieved between grades, extracurriculars and essays was extremely helpful. I cannot thank her enough for all the guidance and help she provided!"

Right with the initial conversations with her, we felt much more confident and comfortable.
