"We are grateful for the amazing support and guidance that Eva Scalzo gave our son Dominic throughout our son's college application journey. Thanks to Eva and her expertise and dedication, he secured admission to the University of Michigan.
From the initial stages of brainstorming essay ideas to refining his application strategy, Eva was instrumental in every step. Her understanding of the college admissions process, combined with personalized advice, helped our Dominic present his best self on paper.
What truly sets Eva apart is her unwavering support and encouragement. She went above and beyond to ensure our son felt confident and prepared for the application process. Her responsiveness and attention to detail were exceptional, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
We wholeheartedly recommend Eva Scalzo to any student seeking guidance in their college journey."

"College applications can be overwhelming, especially when navigating unfamiliar territory. Eva understands college admissions and follows the current trends. We had so many questions: early decision, early action, or regular decision? ACT, SAT, or none at all? What to do if admitted, but placed on a wait list? Eva was always accessible. She monitored deadlines while creating a schedule compatible with Katie’s busy senior year. She kept our daughter on pace with email reminders and meetings. Katie did not feel the panic so many seniors experience. Best of all was the individual attention. Eva took the time to get to know Katie while suggesting colleges we wouldn’t have considered. Ultimately, Katie was accepted to her first choice and it’s a perfect fit. Thank you Eva."

"I'm thrilled...and I owe it all to you! Thank you for all your help and patience during this process. A lot of my friends were losing sleep and rushing to meet deadlines but you kept me organized and calm. I was worried about being waitlisted but I'm glad you encouraged me to take a deep breath and wait. "
- Katie Nehrir, Pepperdine University Class of 2027

"While I was initially apprehensive of the financial commitment for my freshman daughter at Newport Harbor, the outcome of the college advising process has been well worth the price of admission. My now senior daughter has walked the path with Eva for the past 4 years and as of today she is 8 for 9 on admissions to colleges. Even more value-add was sitting on the sidelines and being able to have healthy input on the process as opposed to having to navigate the application process with my daughter, so big thanks to Eva for taking that on. We appreciate you looking out for our daughter over these past 4 years and helping her navigate her way into her next phase of life."

"Eva has a unique ability to illuminate the potential within her clients. I remember after first meeting, she pulled me aside and said “you have a fire in your eyes and can do anything you put your mind to”. Eva allowed me to see something in myself that I hadn’t seen before and enticed my ambition. She not only helped me get into my top college, but motivated me. I don’t know of any other college counselors that are willing go to the lengths that she does to help her clients. Without Eva’s expertise and guidance throughout the college admissions process, I would not be where I am today. I would strongly recommend Eva to anyone seeking a college counselor."
- Jena Dole, University of Texas Austin, Class of 2022

“With the help of Eva, I was able to get into my dream school. After meeting with various college counselors, Eva truly stood out as someone who prepared her clients for admission to top colleges. She was consistently available to answer questions and help edit essays. Her availability was extremely helpful in getting my applications done thoroughly and on time. I especially appreciate that she was honest and straightforward with me on all matters. Without Eva’s help, I truly would not have gotten into so many top universities.

“I just want to thank you for Carly and to say that we appreciate your encouragement, your thoughtfulness, your caring and being available at any time, day or night, to help her out. Both of us will always recommend you as a college counselor as both Carly and Griffin had a great experience with you. Thank you for supporting Carly, not only in her academic achievements, but in her dance and her Instagram. You will always have a place in our hearts!”
- Kathy, Parent to Carly, UCLA Class of 2022 and Griffin, UCSB, Class of 2019

"As the parent of my first child to go through the college application process, I quickly realized how different the landscape was compared to my own application process in the late 80’s.  Fortunately for our family we were referred to Eva Scalzo, her college advising firm she founded, and the proprietary software system that anchors her services.  Eva’s background as an accomplished student athlete and her experience at Yale and as part of their ASC was an extremely helpful perspective for us.  She is deeply committed to ensuring that her students are prepared, and realistic about what it takes to navigate and succeed in the process.  I highly recommend Eva and her advisory business."
- Ted Walter, Daughter, Grace Walter, U of CO Boulder of 2023

“Eva, from the moment you came into my life eight (crazy!) years ago, I knew you would forever impact me for the better. I had no way of knowing, however, that you would mean so much to me. Thank you for taking on a role in my life that had a lot more to do with counseling me as a person than just guiding me through applications.”
- Konner Speth, UCLA, Class of 2022
 

“Eva’s guidance was absolutely instrumental in my college application process. My first email to her literally included the phrase “In all honesty, I’m not sure where to begin.” Three months later, I had a portfolio of schools that fit my interests, a sharp personal essay that had gone through countless rounds of edits, and a trusted advisor in Eva Scalzo. Two months after working with Eva, I was awarded a full scholarship to my top choice university and I have no doubt her counseling helped make that possible! I would highly recommend Eva’s work for any student looking to illuminate a path to an exciting academic future.”
- Zack Fowler, Duke University, Class of 2016
 

“I just wanted to thank you for all your help and guidance these last few years! I am so happy that Kenna will be able to attend the college of her choice, and you had an integral part in that! Wow! Kaitlyn at NYU and Kenna at BU! You are amazing and truly appreciated.”
- Karol Dangaran, Parent to Kaitlyn, NYU, Class of 2021 and Kenna, BU, Class of 2023

Much appreciation and gratitude for all your help with Bella and her college applications! You truly are exceptional and a master at your craft! Thank you for everything! Christian, Stephanie, and Bella Walsh.
- Isabella Walsh, Class of 2021

“Eva Scalzo’s Advising program was absolutely incredible and helped me so much throughout all four years of high school. With Eva’s expert guidance, I was admitted to 14 top universities and earned up to $22,000 a year in various merit scholarships.”
- Sydney McKhann, University of San Diego, Class of 2025

"The college application process can be an intense and stressful time, but with the help of Eva Scalzo, I always felt ahead of the game. She helped me keep on top of things and was there for me throughout the entire process. She is extremely knowledgeable on every aspect of the application process and constantly updated me with articles to inform me of anything new. I cannot thank her enough for her tireless effort to help me succeed and for her help in getting me into my dream school, the University of Southern California with a great scholarship."
- Crash Collier, USC, Class of 2025

“Top Ivy League University alum, Eva Scalzo, is a must when it comes to getting your almost-graduate a leg upon the competition. She founded College Interview Bootcamp® and her plan is unbeatable. Eva preps high schoolers with interview skills, etiquette and real practice questions. Who better to give advice than an Ivy Leaguer herself?”
