Sophia (Mom of a senior)

Brighter Days guided my child to apply to schools with vast resources for merit scholarships on top of financial aid. She really helped make my son's desires possible. We could not have navigated these complex applications without this help!

Sam

"Anita taught me how to interview and conducted mock interviews. She helped me get into my two dream schools. She is the best!"

Brooklyn

"With Anita, she got to the core of who I was. My strenghts and weaknesses. How I operate in the world. This was useful for college selection, essay writing, and major selection. She helps you have fun going deep into who you are. I learned so much about me!"
