Testimonials

“My husband and I couldn’t thank Mindy Popp enough for all she’s done. Without her services, this process would have been grueling, probably putting a huge strain on our relationship with our son. Her expertise and professionalism are unwavering. We have already acquired her services for our second son and we look forward to working with her again.” Read more

Parent, Franklin, MA

“Mindy was very helpful in offering guidance at every step of the process. She offered constructive feedback on essays and the college interview process. I found her receptive to my calls and she kept me abreast of the process.” Read more

“Mindy Popp genuinely cares about helping kids (and families) survive this process with the ultimate goal of not just thick acceptance envelopes, but also a sense of perspective and their egos and relationships left intact, if not made stronger by the process. A true feat!” Read more

“The college application process can be very stressful, time consuming and downright aggravating. Mindy made the process efficient, less stressful, and very successful. I am extremely happy, doing very well at Syracuse University, and I could not have done it without Mindy. Mindy and Popp & Associates deserve nothing less than a five star review.” Read More
