David Montesano did an exceptional job helping my son with the entire college selection process. My son was accepted at four of the five colleges to which he applied, and decided to enter Willamette University, which also offered him a scholarship.
My son’s case was not typical, nor particularly easy. He was asked to leave two of Seattle’s prestigious private schools, finishing high school at nineteen through a private school that provided one-on-one tutoring. He then worked in a warehouse for six months before deciding he wanted to go to college.
David interviewed my son, along with me and his father, although we are no longer married. This interview took several hours, during which David really listened to each of us. From this session, David was able to understand which type of colleges would meet my son’s learning style and might also accept him.
David guided my son through the SAT preparation and registration process. He helped him with the applications, always making the applications my son’s responsibility, but acting as a coach.
My son gained a lot of confidence through this process and is very much looking forward to starting Willamette University next fall. Without David, none of this could have happened.
I am most grateful and appreciative of David’s abilities and knowledge and would recommend him without reservation to any family wanting guidance with the college selection process.
My son gained a lot of confidence through this process.
