Testimonials

What Students & Parents Are Saying

Jaya was a great help as someone who comes from a family who is very unfamiliar with the American college process. She took time to leave comments on my essays consistently though drafts to continuously improve where I could, and by the end, I had supplementals and insight questions I knew were as close to my best as it could possibly be.

— Zoya Khan, Student

My counseling sessions were extremely helpful and insightful. Ms. Jaya guided me through the entire college application process with clarity and expertise. Together, we carefully selected a balanced list of colleges that aligned with my academic profile, interests, and future goals. She also helped me explore potential courses that suited my strengths and aspirations, giving me a clearer direction for my applications.

One of the most valuable aspects of the sessions was her support in refining my essays. She provided detailed feedback on structure, clarity, and content, helping me present my experiences in a more compelling and authentic way. Her expert guidance in building my college list based on my unique qualities, made the process feel personalised and strategic. Overall, her support gave me confidence and a strong foundation for my applications.

Jaya from College Pro Consulting certainly knows what to get done — and where — to strengthen your college application. CPC knows how to guide students with very different and diverse backgrounds to get admission into their desired colleges. For myself, a US-born citizen studying in an Indian boarding school, CPC advised me sequentially through weekly sessions on how I should proceed with the process, from selecting high school courses and providing information on college preparation.

College Pro Consulting also drafted a suitable college list depending on my major and extended help when filling out the application and writing the essays. As a student who applied for the Computer Science major, an extremely competitive field, through CPC's help, I could get into good universities like Northeastern, UC Santa Barbara, Cal Poly SLO with my desired major. My personal opinion of the mentor is that she is helpful and informative.

— Akul Singh, Student

A fortuitous encounter put us in the path of Jaya, whom I discovered is in the profession of college consulting. My daughter was already midway through the application process with another college counseling company and had a very mediocre experience. Jaya was able to salvage whatever remained of the process to help provide clear guidance. Jaya reviewed my daughter's essays and provided great recommendations to polish it up for the best deliverable. Jaya is patient, committed, and ensures that follow-up actions are completed by the student — while providing clear timelines. She's passionate about ensuring that each application reflects the student's best version of themselves. My daughter will be heading to UC Santa Barbara this fall to pursue Psychology.

Jaya was very knowledgeable and her advice was invaluable. She offered great guidance and clear directions that helped me stand out in my application.

— Christine, Student at USC

We are very pleased with our experience with Jaya. She was organized, reliable and professional. Our son got admitted to five of the top schools on his list.

— Ryan, Parent of student at Cornell University

Jaya is very committed and showed sincere interest in helping our son every step of the way from class selection, summer activities to college applications. Highly recommend her. My son will be attending UC Berkeley for Mechanical Engineering.

— M. Shah, Parent of student at UC Berkeley

Jaya helped my son plan his high school courses for the next level. Given his background she was able to offer valuable suggestions that could add weight to college admissions. She has an in-depth understanding of the college admissions process and starts on the preparations much in advance. I urge families to set quality time during her appointments and after so they could transcribe them to a rewarding effort.
