The College Blueprint, LLC

"In 2016, we contracted with The College Blueprint to help my daughter into making one of the most important decisions of her life: which college she would attend upon graduation. The cost to hire The College Blueprint was high, but it would prove to be one of the best investments we made. It was our desire that the college our daughter attended would be the “perfect fit” for her. With College Blueprint’s system of counseling, analysis and preparation for the SATs and ACTs, she learned invaluable analytical and decision-making skills that go beyond landing at the right college. It was also very important to seek a higher education in which her faith as a Christian would not be compromised, as so many Universities and College do today to impressionable young men and women, grievously influencing them to stray away from their values and faith. Today, our daughter is enjoying a successful career at one of New York's most prestigious advertising firms, commanding a six-figure income. This all started when she was only 16 under the stewardship of The College Blueprint. Thank you, Jan and staff, for your service of preparing our daughter for the brightest future that one can only imagine!"

"My daughter, Avery, truly enjoyed working with Jennifer. While Avery was not open to my suggestions for her college application, she would listen to what Jennifer had to say and Jennifer kept her on a strict timeline to get the essays done. Avery got into one of her top choices for college and is so excited to start the new chapter in her life."

"We chose College Blueprint to help our son with his college applications, and we are so pleased with this decision. Every aspect of the college application process with College Blueprint, from our initial meeting with Jan Kerchner and contract signing with Taylor Burkhart to the many counseling and writing sessions with our son’s educational consultant and essay coach, was handled with the utmost professionalism. Our son’s educational consultant, Courtney Crenshaw, did an outstanding job helping my son with the college application process from beginning to end. Her assistance included the administering of personality tests, assisting with career research, as well as providing guidance and suggestions for the exploration of majors and colleges. She also provided many helpful suggestions along the way, which allowed my son to compare and explore various colleges while compiling his college list. She also created a comprehensive plan for spreading out the applications so that the process was manageable. Each meeting with Courtney was very productive. At the close of each meeting, she would also provide my son with tasks and timelines that helped keep him on track so that he could also manage his demanding senior year school schedule and other responsibilities while working on his applications. In the end, my son applied to sixteen colleges and was accepted into ten schools including early action for four of the colleges (and is still waitlisted for one school). He was also accepted at his number one school (which was a “reach” school). Additionally, he received numerous merit scholarships. The college application process takes time (and can be overwhelming at times), but Courtney was there every step of the way to cheerfully and calmly guide my son and answer any questions that he (or I) had along the way. His essay coach, Elizabeth Hecker, was also outstanding. She provided timelines for the many essays that needed to be written and submitted with the applications and provided excellent input by asking the right questions, which encouraged my son to think of ways to clearly communicate his accomplishments and experiences. We give Courtney Crenshaw, Elizabeth Hecker, and College Blueprint our highest praise, and we highly recommend College Blueprint to any family who is looking for assistance with the college application process. My son was very pleased with his acceptances and with the final outcome of the process. Sincerely, Karen M."

"My experience with college blueprint was nothing but positive. My counselor, Courtney, was so accommodating for my time zone. She was organized and never came to a meeting unprepared. I instantly felt comfortable and was able to be honest with what kind of college/college experience I was looking for. My essay coach, Elizabeth, was also very helpful. She always answered emails very quickly and when I look at my first drafts from essays, it was clear how much they developed with the help of her feedback. Elizabeth and Courtney both made the process very straight forward and smooth. I was able to submit all of my applications (15) earlier than the deadlines. I would recommend collegeblueprint to anybody considering it; their organization is incredible and made the process very stress-free!"

"Our family has had two exceptional experiences with The College Blueprint. Leslie Bettino of The College Blueprint went above and beyond our expectations as our son Kyle navigated the College Admissions process. She quickly established rapport with him with her warmth, sound knowledge base and experience. She helped him sort through the many college options and pair them with his interest level and personality to finalize a good selections of schools to which he applied. She helped keep our son on track as he worked toward ACT study and test goals. She was supportive and encouraging as he navigated the challenges of a rigorous academic schedule, sports commitments and the college application process. She made personal sacrifices to keep their meeting dates consistent. Leslie gave Kyle referrals for tutoring and worked closely with Elizabeth Hecker at the College Blueprint on essay deadlines and appropriate essay grammar edits. With wisdom and discernment, Leslie managed Kyle's expectations and helped Kyle make decisions about Early Admission and Regular decision applications as well. We are profoundly grateful to The College Blueprint, Leslie and Elizabeth for their hard work and professionalism. Any family would be extremely fortunate to partner with both Leslie and Elizabeth to help their child survive and thrive the college application process."
