Featured Client- Client Success Stories

The Compass team helped me curate a list of schools, any of which I would have been happy to attend. They really pushed me to research schools more thoroughly, to go past the “brand name.” As a result of working with the Compass team, I was confident that my application represented me in the best way possible. I also think that the Compass team's guidance and insight compelled admissions officers to spend a little more time on my application. The Compass team kept me calm going through this stressful process and gave me really great advice at each step of the way.
