, "Chris was amazing! He got my son to do what I couldn’t. It was wonderful to step out of the power struggle with my teenager as he responded so well to Chris. My son loved working with him and got into his number 1 school choice with Chris’s guidance. We will definitely use Chris for our other children. I highly recommend!"

"I was very overwhelmed when approaching the college application process. I didn’t know where to start at all. Dr. Turpin helped me organize my thoughts and figure out what I really wanted out of my college experience. Together we were able to create a plan for my application process which really eased my nerves and helped me approach the journey with clear intentions. Dr. Turpin took a scary intimidating process and made it super approachable. With his help I applied to my top choice schools and was accepted into all of them: the College of Charleston, University of North Carolina, Wilmington, Savannah College of Art and Design and my dream school New York University where I am currently enrolled. I seriously could not have gone through this process without the help of Dr. Turpin."

"There are so many areas of our life where we feel confident, the road to college for our daughter sounded daunting and overwhelming. When we were introduced to Dr. Turpin and heard he could help with the entire college application process I was overjoyed. Not only did It alleviate our stress but it alleviated our daughter’s. He guided her through the entire process; Extracurricular activities that represented her and her passion, helping her get letters of recommendation, her essay writing, preparing for her tests, the entire application process, and so much more. He was a life saver for us and became a confidant and an amazing life coach for Dani during such a stressful time in her life. We would not have survived this time if it weren’t for him. Even though our son Jack is only a sophomore, Chris is already on board to guide him through the college prep process as well. He not only assisted with college but gave my daughter the confidence in so many areas of her life. I highly recommend Dr. Turpin, it was the best decision we ever made."

"Dr. Turpin is the perfect person to guide students in this first big life-changing decision. He helped me bring everything together, tying my personal interests and curiosity to my decision for college as well as guiding me throughout the application process. For months, he helped me plan, narrow down my options, and helped me step out of my comfort zone to recognize and eventually choose something I truly wanted to do. Dr. Turpin helped me in ways he can't even really understand and I try to apply his attitude and thinking process towards the critical decisions I've come across in my life since working with him. For me, having him there relieved a lot of stress because of his experience in all aspects of life - he helped to guide me through the process of choosing the college that fit and I couldn't be happier with the decision I made. I got accepted to each of the colleges I applied to: Clemson University, the University of North Carolina Wilmington - Honors College, the University of South Carolina, Louisiana State University, and Flagler College where I am a sophomore. Dr. Turpin is who you need for this process!"

"Dr. Turpin guides you and your child through the whole process and gets the kids excited about their future."

"I was clueless where to begin the process to assist my son with his college applications. Things had changed quite a bit since I was in college. I met Dr. Turpin through a mutual friend and during our conversation, he told me about his coaching program to guide students through this difficult process. I was convinced! As soon as the time arrived, I called Chris and it was the best decision both for me and my son. He guides you and your child through the whole process and gets the kids excited about their future. He was a confidant to me and a mentor to my son, alleviating stress and anxiety for us both. Best decision I could have made and well worth the investment!"

"Dr. Turpin's coaching not only helped me to actually finish and submit my college applications to the best of my abilities, but he also helped me to rediscover myself and my academic interests in a meaningful way. In high school, I was the student who kind of slacked off and never cared too much about grades, so when it was time to apply to colleges, I was really nervous and had little hopes of getting into any of the schools I would want to attend. Dr. Turpin helped me realize that I actually wasn't a "bad" student and that even though I may not have taken a million AP classes and had scored pretty average on my SATs that my dream schools weren't actually out of reach; they just might not have been what I originally thought they were. I never would've even applied to SCAD if it wasn't for Dr. T, who saw my interests and matched me with schools that were good fits. Dr. Turpin's coaching helped me to gain confidence and place emphasis on being a well-rounded student instead of only focusing on my grades. He isn't like other college advisors. He doesn't only see stats and scores; he also sees you for who you really are and takes the time to understand the students behind those numbers. He saw me for who I really am, a creative soul who could thrive academically but was more interested in other school aspects. I am so grateful for everything that Turpin helped me accomplish, and I can confidently say that if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be where I am today. Dr. Turpin's coaching gave me the confidence and drive to believe in myself and know that I am capable of accomplishing anything I set my mind to."

"THE BEST PART, OUR DAUGHTER LOVED WORKING WITH HIM AS MUCH AS WE LOVED Dr. Turpin WORKING WITH HER. it was truly a win, win."

Chris Turpin was a Godsend for our family when our daughter, Ailey, was a junior in high school. At that point, she and I were both overwhelmed with the thought of the college process. Within two sessions with Dr. Turpin, he began to transform the experience from one of panic and worry (especially from my perspective as a parent), to one of preparation and excitement.
Dr. Turpin helped Ailey with absolutely everything. At the beginning, she had no idea what she wanted to study, where she wanted to live, how big a school she wanted to attend. I would imagine this to be true for many students so young, with so many options. He really helped her hone in and focus to determine a major, and continued to guide her with deciding the universities where best fit these areas of study. As we continued to approach the impending application deadlines, Dr. Turpin's work with Ailey was evidenced through both how prepared and relaxed she was during this time. From scholarship submissions to writing (and rewriting) essays to application submissions, he and Ailey handled it all with grace. The best part, our daughter loved working with him as much as we loved Dr. Turpin working with her. It was truly a win, win. Ailey is attending her first choice school with a very generous 4 year scholarship. There is simply no one better equipped to give your child the tools and direction she/he will need to make such an important life choice." - Andrea and Dean, Parents - |
"Dr. Turpin helped me narrow down what school I wanted to go to and my area of study by making me think about what's most important to me and then giving me the confidence to make a decision. Dr. Turpin's coaching eased the anxiety of applications because it gave me guidance as to what colleges are looking for and how to best present myself to these schools. I am attending Arizona State University and was also accepted into College of Charleston, the University of South Carolina, and the University of North Carolina, Charlotte."

"My husband and I have 5 children and we finally got it right with our youngest! Chris Turpin's relationship with our family and daughter made her experience of choosing the right college a fun and exciting time in our lives instead of the stressful experience we had with our other kids. He really helped her understand that picking a college should be an interesting journey and not a stressful one. He coached her on how she should imagine herself in that place and how to be professional and confident in writing her essay and the entire application process. After applying and touring many schools around the country, Chris helped our daughter make the right choice. We would recommend Coach Chris to any family about to embark on the college application process!"
