“Adela Penagos became our son’s mentor. Working with her was the best decision we have made. She was always approachable and available and kept us apprised of our son’s progress. Her experience and background was the turning point in our son’s acceptance to his university. She made our son’s dreams come true with her hard work, valuable advice, and experience.”

“As parents of a current Harvard student, we strongly recommend Adela Penagos as an advising consultant. Adela was our daughter’s freshmen year advisor who truly supported and guided our child through her first year in college. After having the opportunity to meet and personally interact with Adela ourselves, we strongly believe that she was one of the very best individuals at Harvard. Adela understood the needs of the undergraduates and the goals that they all work towards. Her personal involvement, knowledge and dedication to her job was something that really struck us as a rare quality in someone of her position. In sum, if you expect the best of the best, we definitely recommend Adela and her utmost quality”

“During the fall and winter of my senior year in high school I was fortunate to receive Adela Penagos’ help with the college application process. Prior to this, I only had a vague idea of what I wanted out of my college experience. I was interested in a top tier university, but didn’t have a concrete notion of my options. She not only narrowed my list to a small, cohesive selection, but personally took me to visit the schools as well, really allowing me to know what schools I liked. Her feedback on my essays and résumé as well as her advice on preparing for interviews helped me to put forth very strong applications. I truly felt that Adela made me an outstanding candidate for the schools that I chose to apply to. She let me know what extracurriculars I needed to extrapolate on in my applications and paid attention to every detail of the entire process. Her extensive work with colleges in the past has granted her a truly excellent foundation for helping students seeking admission to colleges. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable but personable, friendly and is always willing to go the extra mile. I am ecstatic to be able to recommend her, and to say that she is a major reason I will be able to attend Georgetown University.”
