Testimonials “The College Tour that Ellen sets up is very helpful and organized. Students will not only be given a tour of the selected campus, but she also arranges interviews as well. You learn a great deal about college life, and see various forms of the culture, especially if you are going to the opposite coast. The College Tour is definitely a fun experience and I recommend it to everyone.” - A 2006 Graduate of Hillsdale High School in San Mateo
