Christina has been such an excellent guide throughout the entire search and application college process.
She was super helpful in helping me find schools that fit my specific criteria.
Her critiques of my essays added so much nuance and detail to really elevate them to a point where I felt like I was fully expressing myself through my applications.
It was so beneficial to have her advising me on details of the process that I otherwise would never have considered, and she provided such an awesome perspective in helping me build my application!"

Huge thanks to you for shepherding our two younger girls through the college application process. We are beyond thrilled for Jane that she gets to go to where she most wanted to be: Yale University. And also that we are done with this process! It’s not easy, and you have to experience it up close with so many people, whew. Appreciated having your assistance!
Her knowledge about schools and what they look for in a prospective student helped me tremendously with my application.
She assisted with all the small details, while being encouraging and supportive. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing help with the college search and application process."

Christina was instrumental in assisting me in submitting essays and a common app that demonstrated my strengths and helped me stand out as a unique individual. She aided me in narrowing down colleges that fit my criteria (major, minor, size) and exposed me to schools I might not have otherwise considered. Her experience and knowledge helped the most when it came to my essays. The schools to which I applied each required 1-2 supplemental essays beyond my personal statement. Christina's knowledge base is particularly pertinent as to what specific universities are seeking - the direction she provided was so valuable! I was able to provide her with drafts over the summer, receive timely feedback, and completed each of my essays so that I was able to submit all my applications by late September. This made the start to my senior year so much easier!
Her system of organization and deadlines was beyond helpful; it made the process so much easier to navigate and complete. My application and results would not have been the same without Christina's guidance. "

Christina is a God-send! Her expertise made her an invaluable resource to novice parents during our first son’s college application process and assured that he was admitted early action to his first choice school - University of Wisconsin - Madison. Turning the process over to her to keep our son on track with application deadlines saved countless ‘battles’ and headaches.
She helped him prepare an application that presented his achievements and activities in the best possible way - to convey a well-rounded and successful student. She particularly helped him come up with a personally meaningful theme for his application essay, resulting in an engaging final essay in his own unique voice, far beyond what he could have achieved on his own. We are currently in the process of hiring her for our daughter, which is probably the strongest proof of our belief in her worth as a partner in the college application process!"

Christina was amazing, especially her support with essay writing!
Sitting in India and trying to navigate US college admissions was tough, but Christina helped make the process so smooth.
She helped with every bit of the application process, from narrowing down my college list to writing essays to negotiating my financial aid offer. I don't think I would have gotten into the schools I did without her guidance."

We have enjoyed working with Christina Wright for college counseling.
We can’t imagine going through such a trying and important process without someone like Christina in our corner. She was pivotal helping our daughter develop a core list of colleges and universities that would suite her social and academic needs.
She brought up schools we never would have thought of and stays lazer focused on fit and guidance over prestige. At an age where teens are tuning out their parents Christina was able to connect with our daughter and get her to do tasks and think about things that would have been a big eye roll for us.
She helped our daughter through the entire process, from the research of schools, building her personal resume, challenging her to take on leadership, helping with the actual application and the essay.
She is excellent in helping kids generate creative writing ideas and helping them edit their essays. She is a true life line and worth every penny.
Our only regret is we may have started with her sooner!!”

Christina is fantastic! The summer before my senior year, I had no knowledge of the college admissions process. Christina helped me research and build a college list and map out tours to decide on which schools I would apply to. By fall, she helped me brainstorm, develop, and edit a unique personal statement, as well as fill out the rest of the application. She helped me utilize spaces of the Common Application to highlight every aspect of my academic, extracurricular, and personal achievements and end with the best product possible. Christina!
She also guided me through the numerous supplemental essays and helped me leverage these to tailor my application to specific schools.
Christina consistently offered personal guidance and knowledgeable responses to the many (many) questions I asked.
I was admitted to 13 colleges and have accepted a spot in the Duke University, Class of 2025— I could not have done this without the help of Christina!"

COMMON ADMISSION QUESTIONS
01
What can my child do to improve their chances of getting into their dream college?
In my program, I help students learn how to maximize their academic and extracurricular opportunities for maximum impact, like leadership, to show those things because colleges want to see that you are making a positive impact in your school and community.
02
What factors should I consider when choosing a college?
Every student has different factors to consider when choosing a college or university. In my program, I assist you in ranking the most critical aspects and determining whether they are public, private or both. Are they offering the majors that you're interested in? Do you value school spirit, such as having a football team? Whatever you're considering, there's probably a school out there that meets your needs, and I can help you find it. These are the factors you should consider when choosing where you'll be living for the next four years of your life.
