We truly appreciate you and CL team's efforts put into my daughter's college application journey. The success we called wasn't about getting into the highest ranked school, it is about the confidence we gained thru out the process, also the college fits her best interests! read more

Tammy as owner is hands-on, very personable and manages a fun team of college counseling experts who will take time to listen and help you with your college applications from A-Z! read more

Fantastic counselors and advisors! Not only did they spend time getting to know the students from a holistic approach, they really care about each student's goals and dreams no matter how big or small. Not every student knows what he/she/they wants, College Launch advisors and counselors honor that and guide them accordingly. From staff to counselors, they listen and answer parents' and students' questions and concerns, answer every question, pair them with right advisors. Their online college application time management tool helps students keep track of deadlines and what need to be completed. read more

College Launch was instrumental to my success in my grad school application pursuit. Tammy and team provided a wealth of resources, where one worth highlighting was a consultant from HBS. He added value in areas of effective writing, interview techniques and overall school acceptance/rejection process/criteria. College Launch allocated dedicated hours both in person and online. Tammy and team were always one email or phone call away. But what sets College Launch apart from others is that they understand the notion of applying for MBA schools is a very personal experience. Consequently, they took it upon themselves to ensure I submit the best package to the schools (e.g. multiple revisions, edits and drafting for 4 essays). CL also didn't hesitate to leverage their personal network to help me achieve the success of acceptance to my target school (e.g. invited me to luncheons to meet influencers & stakeholders of my target school). I highly recommend anyone who is considering post grad degrees to make an appointment with College Launch. I'm confident that you will walk away feeling you've made a good choice in having CL as a partner in your graduate degree pursuit. read more

Really helped with my daughter's essay! She accepted by UCLA with scholarship! Thank you. read more

I can't say enough about how grateful I am for having College Launch by my side during TWO of my (possibly most important) application seasons in my life. Tammy and her team are just absolutely professional on school applications, everything from college app, transfer app, grad school app, you name it. When I was applying for undergrad, Tammy and Callie guided me through my essay brainstorming all the way to proofreading and I got into my dream school!! A year later after I graduated from undergrad, I came back to College Launch and asked Tammy to help me on my grad school application, and I got into my first choice school again!! To be more specific, I got into 2 highly competitive programs at Columbia, Duke, Northwestern, Cornell, USC and NYU (big shout out to Derrick who patiently guided me through my essays, and Anna for proofreading). Want to get into your dream school? Say no more fam, call College Launch. read more

Tammy and her colleagues have made an immense impact on my life. The advantages of getting both guidance on applications and the network of professional mentors in the field has benefited me even after being accepted into all my graduate school programs. My only regret was not doing this sooner so that they could have helped me in my undergraduate programs. It has been a pleasure working with and for College Launch. read more

College Launch - Got into all my graduate programs including USC, Rochester, Vanderbilt, and Purdue, but ultimately chose Johns Hopkins. Thanks Tammy! - Private Tutors Near Me - Pasadena , California

I was a student there and it was very helpful. Tammy helped me a lot on recommending colleges, and also help me set my own goals that I should achieve in order to get into the school I wanted. Callie was very good when it came to helping me on college essays. Not only did I complete my essays, I thought that Callie has made me into a better writer. Everybody there is friendly and the environment is comfortable :) read more

Tammy is an amazing counselor and is very sincere and genuine. I began working with her at the beginning of my senior year and am grateful that she was able to give me a spot in her program. She is very knowledgeable on which colleges fit my criteria and understood my position academically. I also worked with Soliana as my writing coach. She is an incredible writer and her editing skills are flawless. She is very compassionate and will help edit at almost any time of day. Both helped me achieve where I wanted to go. read more

We reached out to Tammy to gain insight on the K-12 independent schools within the Pasadena area and she was wonderful. She is very knowledgeable about all the schools in the area, is familiar with current school faculty, and offered great input while remaining sincere, warm, and friendly. We look forward to reaching out to her again in the future and will definitely recommend her to friends looking for help in the school application process. read more

Best college counseling team out there! Forever grateful for Tammy and Callie for guiding me through the college application process. I started working with Tammy my sophomore year in high school. She was extremely helpful with giving advice on classes to take and motivating me to challenge myself in different honors courses. She also provided tutoring services as well as volunteer opportunities. Tammy is very understanding and supportive. Callie is my writing coach and she is the most energetic and friendly person I've ever met. I loved working with her on my college essays. Meetings are always fun and she even inspired me to become a better writer. Thanks to them, I was able to get into my dream college even though my high school counselor told me that I couldn't get in. #fighton read more

I cannot praise Tammy and her team enough. Tammy was so incredibly patient throughout my entire undergraduate college process and would answer questions and edit documents for me even at 2 am! Her passionate dedication to her work and love for her students is seen through so many successful results. I got into schools I never dreamed of getting into and was blessed with the hardest decision of deciding between UCLA and USC! I was also admitted to NYU, Boston U, and UCSB, just to name a few other institutions. I know this may sound dramatic but I sincerely can admit that without Tammy's help, I really would not have been able to get into all these amazing schools. She made the college process so much easier for me and for her, I am forever grateful. read more

My son started the college application preparation with College Launch last summer. They customized an application plan based on student background and experience at first. They guide students in the whole process of the application. We have very good interactive communication with them on the application progress. Tammy is very professional and patient to answer any questions, who manage overall process. Callie and Derrick are excellent writing coaches. Alan provides very good leadership training. Violet and Ivan have great management and scheduling services. We like their team work. My son is accepted by one of his dream college. The counseling services are pleasant and professional. As a parent, I highly recommend you select College Launch as your children's college application consultant. read more

Calvin and Tammy helped get me into my dream school!!! I am eternally grateful. Calvin spent countless hours editing and calling schools to answer my questions. In addition, Callie polished my essays to perfection. Tammy,Calvin, Callie, Vanessa and Violet are all very sweet people who care about their students! I'm going to miss them read more

Tammy and her associates were all super helpful and knowledgeable through my graduate application process. They really helped take my essay and resume to the next level. I don't know if if I could have gotten into grad school without them. If you have previously applied to undergrad or grad school(s) of your choice and did not get in, I highly recommend contacting college launch and they will give you an honest and helpful assessment. read more

If only I had come across College Launch during my undergrad admission! Tammy was not only extremely helpful with the application and essays, but soo comfortable to talk to. She sat by my side helping me brainstorm ideas for my essays and I finished my application to submit within 3 sessions! The sessions were very productive but also relaxed and casual which I appreciated. I've been to more than a few of these types of college application workshops and College Launch was the only one where I was presented with opportunities to network with people. I can see myself continuing to keep in contact with Tammy, and will definitely be back when it comes to the grad school applications!! read more

College Launch is an incredible help with standardized testing. Out of all the tutoring classes I attended, College Launch's sessions were definitely the most helpful and the most informative. The staff is incredibly friendly, organized, and very flexible when it comes to session times. I know that because of College Launch my ACT scores were at least 3 points higher than they would have been. Thank you College Launch! read more
