Amy’s success rate is unbeatable—100% of those who applied were accepted to a school on their list. Amy can turn reluctant students into happy college-accepted students. Her support in defining a target list of schools is excellent. She breaks down the process and keeps both families and kids focused. She “gets” the stress, and her support and knowledge help families move through the process harmoniously. She is also fantastic at getting scholarships.

– Marie O.-Teacher and Colleague

Despite my daughter’s overall outstanding academic achievement, including her ACT score, GPA, AP, and IB courses, she struggled to complete her Common Application and Coalition Application independently. We were lucky to find Amy, who gently advised our daughter with ease and care. After acceptance letters arrived, Amy stepped right in. She helped evaluate the final college choice, which was a winner. We are grateful for her educational perspective and remarkable knowledge about the college process. Amy Shalita is an incredible role model, educator, and person.

Amy has worked with my son (age 19) for over four years. She has made a significant impact on his life. Not only has she supported him academically, but emotionally as well. He is more organized, focused and confident in and out of school. Amy has a true gift for connecting with her students; we feel blessed to know her.

– AJ’s mother

Amy has worked with my son (age 17) for two years. She has been instrumental in developing his organizational skills and advancing his academic capabilities. Amy also helped coordinate with my son’s treatment providers, such as teachers, learning specialists, and therapists, ensuring we worked as a team. Her guidance and judgment have been essential to our child’s growth and success. We trust her implicitly!

-Henry’s mother

I had spoken to several teachers at my son’s private school when he was not doing his homework, getting poor grades, and being somewhat lost. The best help from my son’s school was when they gave me Amy Shalita’s number. In two years, she has taught our son (age 17) the ability to concentrate, analyze, organize, and complete his work independently. Amy is inspiring, dedicated, and experienced; we are fortunate to know her.

– Jake’s father

Amy works with my daughter (age 21), who attends Wellesley College. She is patient, creative, and incredibly supportive. Most importantly, Amy keeps pursuing ways to help my daughter through each semester.
