It was a wonderful experience working with Horizon Consulting. Elaine gave me all kinds of ideas about the college application process and because of her, everything became easier. She instructed me on the best way to do the applications. In addition, she was very responsive, patient, and thorough in explaining everything to me until I understood it. My essay-writing and interviewing skills were greatly enhanced in the process. I am a student who came to the U.S. from China one year ago, so college application was a totally new and daunting process for me. Fortunately, I met Elaine and she made me feel comfortable and cleared up every detail relating to the application process. I learned so much that I was able to help my friends too. Elaine and I made decisions together and she always made sure I kept on top of my goals. She is the first person I go to whenever I encounter problems here in the U.S. Many young international students come to the U.S. without parents being nearby, so it is great that Elaine is here to help deal with the complicated admission process, culture shocks and life in the U.S. I don’t think any other so-called educational consultant can be as professional and yet compassionate at the same time as Elaine. — On Comprehensive College Admissions Services

My case was an urgent one, and fortunately I came across Horizon Consulting. Elaine Lin not only advised me on the application process, she encouraged me to keep going and never give up. She showed me how to write a detailed, yet honest essay about who I am, and her attention to detail enabled me to improve my writing skills. Elaine would never write or translate for me. Instead, she made sure I knew how to write the essay myself. In addition, she coached me on my first U.S. college interview in a way so that I was confident and knew exactly how to interview with my admissions interviewer. I don’t think any consultant in Taiwan can do what Elaine does. She is an educational consultant, not an agent, so she can provide counseling and make sure that you are comfortable and confident during every step of the application process. I have been recommending Horizon Consulting to my friends, and a friend of mine was able to get into a decent school with Elaine’s assistance. — On International Student-College Transfer Admissions Services

I found my experienced with Horizon Consulting very enjoyable. After having the initial college talk with Elaine, I felt much more at ease and had a lot more confidence with the college process. She was very knowledgeable about the whole college application process and tailored her expertise to my college needs. In addition, she helped me with managing deadlines and understanding how the process works. Her comments on my essays were very helpful and directed, and her critiques helped me reveal more about myself in the essays and taught me how to present myself to the college admissions board. I would recommend Horizon’s educational consulting services to all my friends and family. You’re great! — On College Application and Essay Review Individualized Services
