"I've had the pleasure of working with Christina Dalton for about two years as a co-advisor, and firsthand observed her care and compassion that she provides to her students. From start to finish, she custom tailors a college admissions strategy that incorporates the student's academic and professional interests in mind with an intentional balance to maximize student outcomes. Christina has decades of experience within the field of education, and can connect to students from a wide array of backgrounds. From test prep strategy, developing a strong and balanced college list, to essay editing, Christina provides students with incredibly tailored guidance in a manner that helps to demystify college admissions processes. She pulls in from her wide array of educational experiences and as a life coach to help ease student concerns, and empowers students to take ownership within the admissions process."
Thanks to Christina's guidance, I was prepared for all college application requirements and steps far before any due dates arrived. We started working together two years before the actual application season, and Christina provided me with a clear idea of how to organize my timeline, encouraged me to take educational initiative, and helped me select schools that would best suit me.
I had a clear idea of where I was applying, multiple essays prepared and polished, as well as information compiled in order to streamline the process when the time arrived. Christina also helped me stay on track of these essays and exterior requirements by consistently emailing reminders and checking in at the beginning of every meeting. Her feedback was specific and allowed me to improve both my essay writing skills and professionalism. I was able to complete all 26 of my applications in a timely manner and stress free!
Christina was very supportive of my unconventional college pursuits from day one. If I had to go through the application process all over again, I would choose Christina as an advisor!
"Thank you very much, Christina. Our family are blessed for having you as Tony's advisor. Your invaluable experience and in-depth guidance have provided Tony strong support in every step in the college application process."
"Working with Christina helped me earn $100,000 in scholarship money, including a $10,000-per-year Horatio Alger scholarship — that's $40,000 total for my bachelor's degree. I am so grateful for her guidance throughout this entire process."
"I received acceptances from Yale, UPenn, Berkeley, Georgetown, and USC. Christina's discussion approach, consistent reminders, interview prep, and mock interview support made all the difference. I couldn't have done it without her."
"Christina is dedicated, responsive and very knowledgeable. She helped our daughter gain acceptances to USC and Santa Clara University. We are so grateful for her guidance and expertise throughout this process."
"I secured a job offer at Brigham and Women's Hospital and was accepted to UMass Amherst, UNC-Chapel Hill, and ED2 Vanderbilt. Thank you Christina for your feedback and gentle guidance throughout this journey."
"Christina was a blessing to our daughter Waverly during the scholarship interview process. Her expertise and dedication to high school students is truly remarkable. We are so grateful for everything she did to support Waverly."
