We are incredibly grateful for Spark’s exceptional knowledge and guidance throughout the college application process. Our son started working with our consultant during his sophomore year. While he primarily wanted to focus on soccer recruitment, with so many uncertainties along the way, our consultant helped us prepare for both paths, ensuring everything possible was done for soccer while also keeping other strong college options open. Spark’s strategic approach and unwavering support gave us peace of mind, keeping our son on track throughout the entire process. As we wait for responses from a few remaining schools, we know he already has amazing options ahead, all thanks to Spark's expertise. We are beyond grateful for everything Spark has done for my son. Their dedication and genuine care made all the difference, and I know my son wouldn't have made it this far without their help. I can't recommend Spark Admissions enough!
