Grant wanted to attend Western State Colorado University. It offered his major Energy Management and there are mountains for skiing in the winter and mountain biking in the summer—it appeared to be a “perfect fit.”

Dear College Inroads: We just want to thank you and your team for the magnificent outcome of your training for our daughter. She has been selected for early admission at ten of her eleven applications and placed on the wait list at another prestigious university where her application will be reconsidered for general admission. So far, she has been offered about $1 million dollars in academic scholarships.

Our daughter has already chosen a university. They have offered her an academic scholarship for $29,000 per academic year. We have agreed to pay the rest and she will have to provide her own spending money. She wants to live and learn in a big city. Of course, we are concerned for her safety, but we have to support her dreams.

So, a big shout out to you and your team and your ground game! It worked out great for our beautiful daughter. We are so impressed with the value added by your team. Never in our life have we ever experienced a better return on investment. We owe you and your team so much more than a thank you email. It's absolutely wonderful to witness a commercial program provide such stunningly good outcomes to its beneficiaries. You have done well for College Inroads, well for the students and their families, well for the community and for Central Texas. We wish you well!

College InRoads was a phenomenal experience from the very beginning.

When my son was a sophomore, we sat down with Mike and Dee and they walked us through a summary of what to expect for the upcoming year and through to graduation. We received a binder, log-ins for their student portal and appointments for several assessments. They walked my son through everything from narrowing down to a few potential majors, best schools suited to him for his preferences AND a ton of essay tutoring and mentoring. We didn't have to worry about missing any deadlines or stressing about my son's admission process! We got a short list of schools to visit and updates on admissions, essay deadlines and financial aid information.
I truly believe that College Inroads helped my son maximize his opportunities and he ended up with a FULL SCHOLARSHIP to the college of his choice! Thank you, Mike, Dee and Annemarie!

College In Roads has been a great partner to our family in navigating the college selection and admissions process.
Having a trusted third-party advisor was a huge bonus for our daughter, it really broadened her perspective and gave her someone to work with in a safer way than just her parents :). For my wife and I, CIR also was invaluable in the project management of the entire process, making sure we hit deadlines and engaging our daughter's accountability in that process.

We have recommended CIR numerous times and signed up for our younger daughter as well - great experience.

Annmarie is located in austin tx but has been an incredible resource to my friends and family with high school seniors in Ohio and in San Antonio. She makes finding the perfect college so smooth. She is extremely knowledgeable with paperwork. She has saved the relationships between teen and mom by being the “naggers” of paperwork leaving room for mom and kids to savor those last few months together!

Enid Jones Parent

College Inroads is fabulous!! They guided us through the daunting college search, essays, applications and financial aid process. They pace the process so its manageable for both the kids and the parents. I am certain that the money we saved from the scholarships and reduced college fees more than covered the cost of their service. Looking back, I can't imagine doing this process without the College Inroads team!
