Narrative Review (More detail = more helpful)
BACKGROUND & GOALS: As a parent, I didn't have a clue about what to do in the college process. Our one and only daughter, a high achiever with goals and visions of going to the college of her dreams, needed direction and instruction on how to proceed. We met Tam Warner Minton for the first time when our daughter was a freshman in high school. When we met Tam in person, we quickly learned that she is an absolute expert in her field. She had so much knowledge and experience. As a freshman in high school, just from our initial consultation, Tam gave our daughter lots of direction on what classes to take in high school and what extracurriculars would be helpful to her. I knew our daughter was going to be in good hands with Tam. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES: We were relieved and confident when we hired Tam to take our daughter through the process of looking for and applying to colleges. She helped our daughter learn about what you look for in a college, and also avoid choosing a college for the wrong reasons. She helped her find colleges that would really be a good fit for her. Through this process, I was undergoing chemo and radiation and I was unable to help my daughter at all. Tam did the whole job. She held our daughter's hand every step of the way... and there are lots of steps!! This gave me the peace I needed to focus on healing. Having Tam oversee everything involved relieved the guilt and concern that I would have otherwise struggle with, not being available to my daughter at such a crucial time in her life. Even if I had been perfectly healthy at the time, we would have still hired Tam. We had planned to all along. Her guidance, instruction, care, and TLC was invaluable. Tam has taken our daughter on a college tour trip to Boston, where they toured several different schools and had interviews as well. Trips to schools are such an important part of the process and I am so grateful that Tam took our daughter to Boston.
RESULTS & FINAL THOUGHTS: Our daughter has completed all of her college applications and we are waiting to hear back from the schools at this time. Tam is planning another college tour trip with our daughter to the west coast next month. We are only a couple of months away from knowing where our daughter will attend college. This is a very exciting time and we could NOT have done it without Tam. She is a blessing and any teen that is fortunate enough to have Tam help them will benefit greatly!
Would you recommend this consultant or hire them again?: yes
