Spark Admissions was recommended to us by another highly satisfied parent. Despite our short timeline, our consultant was quick to learn about our son and helped him finalize his list of colleges very efficiently. They then set up a timeline of tasks that was feasible and guided him through the application process, including giving him a practice interview. We found Spark to be very knowledgeable about the colleges and the process and we were very pleased with their advice. Our consultant was very quick with responses when we had questions, and we found that communicating with them was very easy. Importantly, we found them to be great at providing positive feedback to our son while gently nudging him to keep on task. Their calm approach helped make an extremely stressful process manageable for all of us. We highly recommend Spark Admissions!
