Real Success Stories

Hear what our satisfied students and families have to say:

“Working with Missy Moreland was the best investment I could have ever made for my daughter. The daunting college planning process became organized, non-stressful, and enjoyable. During Missy’s initial meeting with Caroline, we knew we were in the best of hands and with a professional who truly possessed a wealth of knowledge about the college application and admissions process. From individual meetings to phone, email and text check-ins, to strategic timeline planning, Missy was there for her. Her dedication to Caroline throughout the entire process was remarkable. The magic was in taking the process in small chunks, based on upcoming deadlines, with someone overseeing the process. Caroline was accepted as an Early Decision applicant to her first choice University and we could not be more proud.”

“I knew my career path was in Architecture and I knew I wanted to attend a school in the south. The college search process was initially fun, but very quickly became a huge stress event with the unexpected passing of my Dad, a robust class load, and SAT/ACT testing. Overwhelmed and stressed my Mother, who works full-time, knew we were going to need some assistance and she contacted Missy Moreland. Missy got to know me and understand my needs. She was very knowledgeable and was able to provide me with the focus and direction I needed. She kept me focused and on target for deadlines. She provided great advice for essay topics, interview preparation, and even exposed me to a few Colleges in the “North and Midwest” that she felt could be a perfect fit for me. Ironically, she was right and with a visit to a College in the Midwest (to appease my mother), I knew I was at the place I should be. I applied Early Decision, was accepted, and could not be any happier and excited. It was Missy’s insight into me as a person that resulted in a recommendation of a School not on my radar. For that alone, I am thankful.”

"We contacted Moreland & Associates Educational Consulting when our student was already a freshman in college and he realized he was not happy and wanted to transfer to another school. During the initial consultation Missy was easy to talk with, very professional, and it was clear she was knowledgeable regarding the college transfer process.

Missy worked with our son over the phone during the second half of his first semester at college and then in person over the winter break to help him clarify the characteristics of a college that would be a good fit for him.  After together identifying an appropriate set of schools Missy created a spreadsheet to help keep our son on task and on time with the various parts and deadlines of the transfer applications (i.e. essays, transcripts, letter of recommendation, etc.).  Missy checked in with him (and us) regularly throughout the process and was a caring, concerned and trustworthy third party our son could talk with as he worked on his transfer applications.

He was accepted as a transfer student at several schools and is now a much happier student and a junior at the University of Notre Dame.

Deciding to apply to transfer from one college to another can be an emotional and time-consuming ordeal.  We were delighted with the way Moreland & Associates Educational Consulting successfully guided our family through the process."

"Working with Missy was one of the best investments I made in my daughter’s education. If I have any regrets, it’s that I wish we had worked with her sooner. We will definitely be working with her again when applying to colleges.

Missy is wonderfully warm and insightful. Her years of working in admissions, school administration, and on boards have given her a really valuable perspective—she understands school placement from many different angles and can help you determine which schools will be the best fit for your child and why. She can also help navigate things like approaching admissions officers outside of the normal admission cycle, how to respond to admission rejections and when to reapply, how to proceed with tutors, educational evaluations, etc.

In our case, my daughter was having a tough time at a private school where she had been happy for many years. Missy was invaluable in helping me sort out the different factors at play and make the difficult decision to find another school.

For every topic we touched on, Missy had a wealth of information at her disposal. My daughter is a British citizen—Missy has experience helping kids research international schools. My daughter was interested in a public magnet school—Missy explained the International Baccalaureate program to us and described her experiences with it. My daughter had expressed an interest in boarding school—Missy knew about scholarship opportunities and smaller schools we hadn’t been aware of.

I believe Missy’s so passionate and good at what she does because she is a genuinely kind person who really likes kids and wants to see them in an environment where they will be happiest and thrive. On every level I can think of, I 100% recommend working with Missy."
