Student & Parent Reviews

Top College Coach helped me with all of my applications, including my supplemental essays. They are very knowledgeable about what each Top 20 looks for in terms of applicants. My mentor helped me create essays that not only showed who I truly was but also matched each school’s culture. During the draining college application cycle, Top College Coach helped keep me motivated and afloat, meeting all my deadlines. I am now attending Brown University, and I would not have dreamed of getting into it without their help and support.

I certainly would not be attending Johns Hopkins without the help of Top College Coach! They were with me every second of the application process, and provided detailed and personal assistance that relieved so much stress from this entire process! Thank you so much to Top College Coach for helping me get into 13 top colleges!

I don’t know how our family would have gotten through the college admissions process without Top College Coach! As the mom of a teenage girl, I can’t say a word without being judged or questioned. Top College Coach saved our relationship as their coaches read and critiqued her entire application from essays to extra curriculars to supplementals and let me just be mom! My daughter was accepted to several Top 20 schools across the country!

The
Top College Coach Method
As the parent of an Ivy League student myself, I fully understand the trepidation the college application process creates. I have navigated it hundreds of times, and I understand it both as an admissions expert and as a parent.
I am an award-winning writer, who spent several years in the admissions process at top colleges and universities—speaking and meeting with admissions officers, analyzing data, attending conferences and webinars, taking courses, consulting with experts, reading nearly every published work on the topic in the last two decades, and interviewing numerous current Ivy League students. From this work, I developed the Top College Coach method: a proven and distinctive approach that has helped every one of our students gain admission into many of the world's most prestigious universities.
My background as a writer and storyteller for Disney and other major corporations has been invaluable. At its core, an effective application is about telling your story in a way that captivates and connects with decision-makers. This is where our students shine.
At Top College Coach, we guide students in building standout applications, exceptional essays, and proven interview strategies. This is one of those rare moments in life where you only get one chance. We partner with students and parents who are ready to get it right.
If that sounds like you, I invite you to sign up for a Free Strategy Session using the link below, or email me at Randy@TopCollegeCoach.com. We have limited spots available for each upcoming class, so if we are fully booked for your graduation year, we will work to connect you with other resources.
