Success Stories

Thuc Nghi

Dickinson College

During my entire college application process, Ms. Tram supported me so much — from carefully preparing my essays to helping me choose the right schools. My personal impression is that she’s incredibly meticulous, always reminding me to check application deadlines, and she’s also super enthusiastic and friendly. Honestly, she deserves a perfect 100/100 =)))).

Ms. Tram is not just a study abroad advisor – she’s a truly inspiring guide who led me throughout my journey to pursue my dream of studying in the U.S. In the early days when everything felt overwhelming and uncertain, I was lucky to find in her a devoted mentor, someone who wholeheartedly understood and nurtured my potential.

My mentors supported me greatly in preparing for the IELTS and SAT exams as well as during the college application process. They provided me with valuable insights into how to write impactful essays for my applications. Their expertise and dedication throughout the journey helped me continuously grow and push my limits!

I had the chance to work with Ms. Tram and receive her guidance at the beginning of my senior year to prepare for college applications. She not only gave thoughtful advice but also supported me every step of the way throughout the entire application process.
