What Our Families Have to Say About Viewpoint

Post-Graduate — Baseball & Hockey

“Since the day we were introduced to James, his experience and knowledge of the Prep School application process was instrumental in helping us make the best decision for our family. We did not have any experience with the Prep School evaluation and application process, so James’s real world experience as a player, coach, and admissions counselor was incredibly valuable. He took the time to get to know us, answer our questions and concerns, and helped us narrow down the list of schools to visit. He helped us navigate the recruiting, interviewing, application, and essay writing processes, all while continuing to advocate for our son with coaches and admissions teams alike.

Once the acceptance letters started to roll in, James helped us make the best decision for our son, ultimately providing an outcome that we are thrilled with. We are happy to report that our son will be attending the prep school of his dreams in the fall to play both baseball and hockey. We could not have navigated these unfamiliar waters without James’s guidance and we highly recommend working with him if you are looking to provide your child with a personal level of support that ultimately sets him or her up for success!”

“Viewpoint Educational Consulting helped us to successfully and confidently navigate the prep school search and application process. James went way beyond helping our son with his applications and essays, although he did that as well. With his knowledge of the New England prep school landscape, James patiently and expertly guided us to expand our search, identifying schools we might not have considered in order to find the right fit for our son academically and athletically.

James helped us make and effectively maintain personal connections with coaches and admissions teams. He provided a more structured process for our son’s school search so that we had some objective measures in addition to our subjective views about the fit of each school. James promoted our son’s athletic strengths and goals with coaches, and helped our son formulate the best ways for him to communicate directly with the coaches to show interest and gather information. With Viewpoint’s help, we are more confident than ever that we have found the right fit for our son.”
