“David is the best that I have come across so far in this industry in terms of knowledge, connections, integrity and honesty and responsiveness and in particular he adds huge value in terms of university choice, which as I am sure you are aware is a vast and daunting area.”

“We recommend David Hawkins to our families pursuing international university applications for the following reasons: depth of knowledge of the market (not just US), speed of response, integrity at every level, ability to connect on a personal level with young adults and his ability to provide bespoke advice and find the correct match.”

From the first meeting, David used his vast knowledge of the international university world to guide us through a process that was infinitely more complicated than we had thought. From choosing the right US university through to application and then helping with a deferral request, he has represented very good value and we always felt we had his 100% attention when required. My daughter is now off to Miami University next year and we couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you David

“I applied to some US universities in my final year of Sixth Form, but unfortunately wasn’t offered any places. In my second application attempt on my gap year, I had the help of David Hawkins and his team. They helped me to discover which universities would be best suited for me, which elements of my new application to focus on, and how best to put together my art portfolio. It was extremely helpful to have someone who knew which of my ideas would reflect well in my application, and which I should leave out. David and his team made all the difference in my applications and are the reason I’m able to attend Yale today.”

“David Hawkins deftly developed my writing style over 3 months to help me create admission essays of a standard that I had no idea I could produce. When we first met, my essays were unfocused and often unengaging. His productive feedback and detailed knowledge of the inner workings of the admissions process helped tailor my writing to create essays that helped me gain admissions into Stanford University. The work that he did, not only helped me create application essays that got me into Stanford, but also strengthened my writing skills in ways that have been invaluable at university.”

“David demystified the US application process and helped me focus at what matters, ultimately getting me into Stanford’s class of 2024.”

“I can’t thank you enough. At the start of this process, I did not have any definite direction, all I knew was that I wanted to further my education. Thankfully with all your guidance and expertise, I have been fortunate to receive a number of university offers. I have to attribute this to your approach in finding the university which was the “right-fit”. I have accepted my offer from the University of Toronto and if all goes to plan I will attend this autumn. I am so excited! Thank you once again.”
