Student & Parent Testimonials
“Thank you so much for all your help! I honestly could not have done it without you and am very grateful for all the time and energy you spent helping me with the college application and essay process! Back in the fall, I didn’t even know where to begin, but now I couldn’t be happier attending the UNC in the fall! Thank you!

“Thank you so much to everyone at Launch College Consulting! I was accepted ED to Duke in December. When starting my college process I didn’t think I needed help. I quickly learned, however, applications involve a lot of moving parts and require attention to detail. The application process was a bit overwhelming - especially considering the difficult classes and pretty intensive extracurriculars also demanding my attention. Launch helped me stay on top of the process. Thanks to their schedule of meetings and reminders, I did not have to scramble last minute to write essays. Karen and Debbie provided me with insightful feedback and suggested edits that made my essays more compelling and more fun to read. From music supplements to teacher recommendations, they were ready to assist with every aspect of my applications. Having Launch certainly eased the stress between my parents and me. Instead of my parents nagging me, Karen and Debbie simply kept me realistically on track. They even went above and beyond with helping with my scholarship applications. I honestly did not expect to need help with my college process, but I can’t imagine where I would be without Launch, especially in a highly competitive and unsettling year due to Covid. Thank you all so much. Thanks to your help, I am a proud Blue Devil today!”
“Debbie is everything you want in a college consultant. She is extremely knowledgable, responsive, and optimistic. She truly represented our boy’s best interests and advised them how to market themselves in the best possible light. She greets her clients with genuine interest, vast experience, the highest integrity, and the know-how to achieve their goals. Debbie’s guidance played a big role in our boys getting into the college of their dreams! Applying to colleges is complicated. If your first decision is to choose Debbie as a consultant, the rest will be easy.”
“Thank you so much for everything you both have done for me. I appreciate it all more than you know! I am so happy I found my dream school.”
“Thank you so much for all your help, I could not have done this without you!”
“Once I started working with Linda, I had complete confidence that I would end up in a school that was right for me both academically and athletically. From simply explaining the differences between a Division I and Division III athletic program, to walking me through recruitment questionnaires, emails to coaches, and phone interviews, you were a tremendous support. You facilitated communications between my parents and helped me find a balance between keeping them updated and not becoming too overwhelmed. You also helped me set up and prepare for college visits and meetings with coaches. I would highly recommend Linda to any student or parent that is considering her services to help support the college decision process, especially if playing sports at the collegiate level is a desire.”
“My experience with Debbie and Karen was much better than anything I ever expected. They both took time to review my application essays, make suggestions, and even submit them to the colleges. While I was away (at boarding school) in South Carolina, they both helped me complete eight different applications through Google docs and gave me important information on deadlines. Out of the eight colleges I applied to, seven accepted me! I believe that their help and dedication was a major reason for my high acceptance rate. I give them my highest recommendation!”
“Thank you for all your countless hours and help with my college search! It was great having so many options! Can’t wait to spend the next four years in NOLA! Roll Wave!”
“Thank you so much for all the help with my grad school personal statement. I was admitted and will be attending in the fall! When I was getting a campus tour, the admissions counselor actually remembered my essay and told me how much he liked it. I think your guidance helped me tighten and strengthen my paper. I can’t thank you enough for looking at it so many times!”
“I appreciate all your help and advice that got me where I am today. Thank you for everything!”
