Recommendations

University of Rochester, Admissions Counselor

"Tyler is no mere mortal admissions counselor. I believe him to be some sort of admissions machine, built for the sole purpose of guiding prospective students and their families through the college admission process. Never tiring and never wavering off course, he is a beacon in the maelstrom that is the college admissions process."
