Hi Ellin, I wanted to reach out to thank you for the services you gave me several months ago for interview prep. Helped me calm down prior to conducting interviews. Good new, I was accepted everywhere I applied - Northwestern, Chicago, Michigan, and Rice, so thanks so much for your help!

Hello Ellin, I just would like to share with you that I was awarded the Merit Neeley Scholarship (two-year full tuition) at TCU.

As a first-gen college student with a non-traditional background, the pathway into a competitive graduate school wasn’t always straightforward or clear. I knew I needed support in navigating the process from someone with expertise and a keen understanding of the challenges students of color face in higher education. And I was truly fortunate to connect with Melissa. When discussing my application or desire to attend grad school with her, I never felt like I wasn’t good enough to dream big, attend a graduate program, and make the experience my own. She is a champion in this field. While the application process; GRE, test scores, and required letters of recommendation can feel intimidating, I never felt like I needed to convince her that grad school was the right choice—nor convince her of why I wanted to use my education to impact my community and country. She understood from the moment I sat down with her, and she reminded me to focus on the impact and not get lost in the stress of getting into a program. She uncomplicated the process so that I could focus on why grad school was right for me. She provided insight into the academic cultures of different universities and helped me match my expectations to the program with the best fit. If you’re committed to grad school, Melissa is committed to coaching you—and I can’t think of a better person for you
