Launch U College Admissions Consulting

Working with Catherine of LaunchU during the application process was an absolute game-changer for our daughter Molly.  She guided and supported our child throughout the entire process. She explained what colleges really look for in both the personal and supplemental essays. As a result, Molly’s essays were authentic and well-structured, and we believe allowed her to stand out in a very competitive applicant pool. Catherine’s ability to provide insights into which of her many extracurricular activities to highlight ensured that her well-roundedness was properly represented. Overall, LaunchU reduced the stress of admissions and led us to schools that truly fit our child’s goals and interests.

Catherine provided us with invaluable information and helped our daughter identify a list of schools that were a good fit for her.  She talked us through the pros and cons of whether to apply to schools ED, EA or regular decision, and was very realistic about our daughter’s prospects for admission at her top choices.  She was also extremely helpful in making decisions about whether to submit test scores and how our daughter should highlight her strengths in her common app essay and supplementals for each school.  She is extremely knowledgeable about local, regional and national schools and helped our daughter navigate what is usually a stressful process with ease. 

College admissions is a complex process that can be so stressful and confusing to navigate. Launch U not only made this process significantly less daunting but also helped me use it to my advantage to maximize my results. Ms. Verdi’s extensive knowledge of the college admissions landscape allowed me to put my best foot forward with every application. With strategic essay writing, outstanding letters of recommendation, and translating the confusing college admissions lingo into comprehensible explanations, Launch U truly guided me through every step of the college admissions process. Ms. Verdi knows the ins and outs of the college admissions process and showed me how to maximize my chances through a strategic approach. She is the best and I cannot recommend her enough
