"We are incredibly grateful to Chris Hall for the outstanding guidance and support he provided during the college application process for our three children. Navigating college admissions can be overwhelming, but Chris made it manageable—and even enjoyable—through his patience, insight, and genuine dedication. Chris took the time to understand each of our children as individuals, helping them identify colleges that were the right fit academically, socially, and personally. His deep knowledge of the process, combined with his approachable and encouraging demeanor, gave our family confidence every step of the way. Thanks to Chris, our children not only completed their applications with less stress but also ended up at colleges where they truly feel they belong. We deeply appreciate his time, effort, and the care he showed throughout this journey. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and advocate."

"Working with Mr. Hall over the last four years, and especially during the college application process, has been one of my most valuable experiences during high school. He has always been available to chat about academics, planning my future, or even just to check in, and has been a constant source of support. Mr. Hall helped me tailor my high school schedule to prepare for college coursework and made helpful recommendations at various times for classes and activities that would strengthen my academic resume. As a junior, I attended a summer medical program at Duke University. I would not have been able to participate in this amazing opportunity without Mr. Hall’s thoughtful and supportive letter of recommendation that helped to secure a scholarship to cover the cost of attendance. During the college application process, Mr. Hall was instrumental in helping narrow down my college list and contributing strong letters of recommendation. Next year I will be attending my top choice school, and Mr. Hall helped make this possible. After acceptance, when I applied for a community service scholarship program at the university, not only did Mr. Hall serve as my reference, but he went above and beyond by reaching out directly to the program on my behalf. I believe his extra effort helped me stand out as a candidate and I was ultimately selected as one of just ten program participants in the Class of 2029. Mr. Hall is extremely genuine, very approachable, and truly cares about his students and their successes. I cannot recommend him enough!"

"Chris has been my son’s high school counselor for the past three years. In those three years, he has taken the time to really get to know him – his strengths, his challenges, what drives him, and his aspirations for college. Even with his hundreds of students, Chris has consistently gone above and beyond by checking in on him and how he’s doing with his classes, sending him notes of encouragement, and meeting with him whenever my son is looking to connect. His support has propelled my son forward, knowing he has someone in the school system who truly supports him and believes in him. Chris’ level of support is not typical of a high school guidance counselor, and it certainly wasn’t my experience in high school. It’s clear Chris truly cares about his students and loves what he does. His guidance, dedication, and support are unmatched, and any student and family going through the college counseling process would be lucky to have him in their corner."
