College Solutions

I have had 2 children use College Solutions and a third which is now going through the process. I gave Larry guidelines of what I wanted to spend and he worked with my kids to get them into very good schools at reasonable prices. I always thought I only had 2 options for my children; either a Mass state school or paying in excess of $ 40,000 per year. Larry educated us and worked with my kids to find alternatives that sent my kids out of Massachusetts (which was important to them) at a price I could afford. Now I have 2 kids who are very happy with their decision and I can still take my wife out to dinner!

College Solutions and Larry are great, they have helped many of my clients pick the right schools for them. Most importantly Larry knows what schools offer financial aid, grants and other options to help lessen the financial burden of the four years of college.
I would recommend College Solutions to any family looking at College’s.

I am a 52 year old father of three daughters. My oldest will be attending college in the fall. I was raised in Massachusetts and my father was self employed his whole life. So when I announced to him that I would be going to college, his reply was «with what, I’m not paying for it». I was a good student and got accepted to Cornell, UNLV, FIU, Johnson & Wales and The Culinary Institute. Without his help I attended a community college for my first two years of school. Then I transferred to Florida International University in Miami, which I never saw until the day I showed up for orientation.
Both my parents never got a chance to attend a college and I worked full time through all four years of college. Not much of a college experience for me.
So for my age group things have changed, touring campus’s, SAT prep, ACT prep, Financial aid, essays, thank you letters to school visited, choice, choice and more choices, Etc. This is all a foreign language to me and having a daughter that lives in the NOW and with so many choices and decisions to make. I just can’t tell you how much of an asset it is to have Larry Dannenberg coach my daughter and myself about this whole process.
I know from personal experience that Larry also handles many other high school students in and around our town of Southborough and that is how he came highly recommended to us.
All my daughters will use College Solutions because the rules for admissions change as do our kids from year to year. We started in my daughters sophomore year getting her ready all with Larry’s help. This was something I just don’t have time for as my wife and I are both self employed just like both sets of our parents were.
No mistakes, lots of personal attention, Larry and his staff all very assiduous in their duties when it comes to working with your child.
I highly recommend College Solutions.

Avoid this like the plague. Total ripoff. Not responsive, no follow up, no information of any real use. All forms are available free from schools and online sources. Nothing that is hyped is of value. You will hear stories of success, but nothing that can’t be done for free.
