Lisa is fantastic. Connected instantly with Emma and her insights into the entire application process provides so much direction for Emma. We are so lucky to be able to work with her!

Lisa was great: strategic, thorough and thoughtful. Thank you Lisa.

Stefanie is exceptional. Her approach is comprehensive and thoughtful, strategic and rigorous...and engaging and fun. She somehow manages to make a nerve-racking process feel manageable and exciting. We are grateful to have Stefanie as our college-planning partner and advisor.

Abby is tremendous. Incredibly thoughtful and helpful.

I worked with Mira on my personal statement for a summer project I was applying to. She was very helpful in planning the essay structure and providing feedback throughout the process!

College Bound Mentor is an amazing program that guides you through every step of the process. With their guidance, I was able to get into the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan, a top 5 business program in the country. For those that are just entering high school and looking to get admitted to one of their dream schools in the future, I highly recommend working with CBM. What makes this program so helpful is the dedication of various mentors to your personal college application. Not only do you have a general mentor, but CBM also provides you with an essay specialist, which is crucial as essays are a very important part of the process that is difficult to take on alone. Another thing that is great about this program is that your mentors will be very straightforward with you; rather than just making you feel good about your application, these mentors provide constructive criticism. Their recommendations come from years of experience that the average college applicant doesn’t have, giving clients a competitive edge in the process. Lastly, another great thing about the people in this program is that they display kindness and genuine interest in you, not just as an applicant, but as a person. For example, both my general mentor, Lisa Bleich, and my essay specialist, Colleen Weiss, have checked in on me months after the end of the process, and my general mentor even got me a gift. Overall, I could not be more grateful that I was able to work with CBM.

Stefaine is amazing! She guided us through the college application process with incredible patience and expertise. She was always available to answer our questions, no matter how big or small, and helped us navigate every step with clarity and confidence. Her deep knowledge of the process and her thoughtful advice made a world of difference. I highly recommend Stefaine if you're looking for a supportive, experienced, and genuinely caring college counselor.

Once again, thank you, Stefaine
