Testimonials

We are moving to NYC. I was admitted to {college} with some scholarship money! I am incredibly grateful and excited to say the least. Our decision is easy to make at this point. The program is going to be great. It has been a pleasure working with you. You were nice to take on my case, including the short timeline and low scores. I am grateful for the support and encouragement. It feels awkward to say goodbye here at the end. I won't and plan on dropping you little updates as I enter the program.

We can never thank you enough for sending us to {college}. Our son ended up staying 3 years and came back a fine young man. We are completely in love with the school and Chattanooga. Thank you. Thank you so much!!!

I have just received the present that McMillan very kindly sent me, and through you I would like to thank you all very much for the useful book. Additionally I want to thank Don, the whole team at McMillan and you especially Alex, for helping me get into one of the colleges I wanted. I will be traveling to {college} on September 6th, and from there or anywhere else I hope to keep in touch with you. A very big thank you and best regards!!

We would not have thought of {college} had it not been for Kim saying to our son, “You really need to look at {college}.  I think it’d be perfect for you.”  While Kim works with athletes, McMillan Education has been helpful to other members of our family who are not in sports. Our son is thriving-THRIVING- at {college}. Thank you both for how you assist young people (and their families).

We are both very confident that our son now has the self-management skills, the self-confidence, and the academic stamina to succeed in college. Thank you for your substantial role in helping us achieve this outcome. Without your expertise, your calming voice, and your factually based perspective, we would not have been able to navigate these waters with any kind of success. For a kid who was diagnosed with 8 different disabilities along the way we are going to consider this milestone as the summit of the mountain, even if there are more to climb.

Thank you for all of your advice, wisdom, coaching, support, and love over the past 18 months.  We received good news from {college} today!  We feel so fortunate to have had the "dream team" to work with - from your knowledge of the college landscape to your never-ending support and kindness - it was a joy to spend time with you both. Your involvement made the process of applying to college an enjoyable one. Can you believe I said that? Don't know what we would have done without you!

We are thrilled to let you know that our son’s ED2 application to {college} was accepted.  As if that wasn’t enough, he also received a Merit Scholarship each year provided he maintains the academic standard outlined. We don’t know how to thank you for all you have done for our son over the years.  We could not have gotten to this point without you.

I look back at our darkest days when we felt so completely powerless to stop {our son's} downward spiral.  Thank you for showing us the right programs among the confusing array out there, all of which seemed to claim the same things. Without you explaining to me where we were in the process when things were especially hard to work through, I'm not sure we could have all stayed the course. There's still much work ahead but {our son} is in a much better place and we are all on the road to healing, none of which could have happened without you.

As long-time sports parents, we had no idea how unfamiliar and unsettling recruiting would be. Thank you for the guidance that resulted in {our son} reaching both his academic and athletic goals at a place he couldn’t have imagined being lucky enough to attend!

Because you take the time to get to know them personally, my sons feel more confident in their directions and decisions. They have a sounding board who relates to them, speaks their language, is knowledgeable, and provides suggestions we may not have found. Best of all, I am still very involved in their journey—in a manner that is more collaborative than I had imagined. With a wise advisor, the big decisions are easier and I believe my sons will make more prudent choices.
