Our trusted experience
Words cannot express how extremely grateful we are for Mrs. High, aka ScholarShopMom. We had no idea how convoluted the college search process would be. These days, it’s not just enough to have a list of colleges and hope to be admitted. It has to be the right fit academically, financially and be supportive of the students’ interests. With guidance from Mrs. High, Caleb was able to find the “right fit”. He will be attending a private college debt free! Mr. and Mrs. High were very instrumental in helping Caleb. She asked him the ideal questions, which forced him to think critically about how he would present himself to the admissions committee. That can be difficult for a student that is not used to talking about themselves. With her help, Caleb was able to find his voice and convey his thoughts in written form. Students who are starting their college search (and even current college students) can benefit from her services. We highly suggest that you subscribe to her website, follow her on social media and attend her seminars.
“I am very thankful and blessed to have had Mrs. High as a college/scholarship mentor during my last few years in high school. She has helped me tremendously in finding the right scholarships and colleges that were tailored just for me. She took the time truly understand my interests and passions which allowed her to give me the support I needed. With her help I was not only able to realize which school was best for me but I have also been blessed to go for free my freshman year. I truly believe that without her guidance I would not have found the perfect school for me.”
“The ScholarshopMom is phenomenal at what she does. She really helped me put my thoughts to paper in a more mature and collegiate way. She took her time with me and worked at my pace.
She aided me in finding the best in me so I could write about it. She has helped me receive thousands of dollars in scholarship money which really saved my family of the hardship of loans. I believe with the assistance of Mrs.High anyone can write a winning scholarship essay” .
Our daughter is now a sophomore at Wellesley College and two years ago we began working with Mrs. High. The focus of our work involved providing a safe and comfortable space with a college career experienced expert to process with my daughter just what type of university / college might be a good fit for her. They met weekly conducting scholarship searches and Mrs. High would challenge our daughter to think about what she considers to be her talents, strengths, interests and academic goals. These conversations with Mrs. High were excellent for our daughter to engage in because it challenged her to think and talk about herself with a professional that she trusted. Mrs. High knew just the right questions to ask that would really cause our daughter to think introspectively. This weekly effort made writing her essays for college applications/scholarships and adhering to application deadlines manageable. I strongly recommend Scholarshopmom.
“I honestly cannot thank you enough for the help and support you have provided my daughter in her search for scholarships. I have always been very proud of her and knew that she had the talents and academic ability to be accepted into some really wonderful universities. However, as a single mother I was greatly concerned with the cost of tuition. I thank God for your guidance in finding scholarships for her. My daughter was accepted into one of the best universities in the country with a tuition cost of about $60,000 per year. Fortunately due to your assistance, I was only responsible for about 20% of the tuition cost. There are so many scholarships out there that we were not even aware of until we got your advice. I am happy and thrilled to tell everyone that my daughter goes to one of the top universities in the country, but thanks to the ScholarShopMom’s scholarship advice we can truly afford it. I hope that more people will have the opportunity to benefit from your scholarship counseling.”
