Review for Collegiate Directions, Inc., Bethesda, MD, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My relationship with Collegiate Directions, Inc. began when I was a High School Junior, just beginning to think about my college career. Today, I am a few months away from completing my Sophomore year of college and I can say that CDI and its staff has played an imminent role since then. CDI serves to assist students in a number of areas including ones academic integrity and moral support. We individually identify with different characteristics that shed light onto our holistic being and CDI was able to capture each of those characteristics. The thing I am perhaps most thankful for is that counselors and tutors alike have gotten to know their students personally and have seen our potential. It's one thing to believe in yourself or have your family believe in you, but for someone to invest so much time in effort when they don't have the obligation to means a lot. CDI scholars are given assistance with college applications, become informed in financial terminology, go on college visits, participate in workshops, serve the community, receive ACT/SAT prep classes, and receive networking tools. All of this is given to us under one condition; that we persevere and achieve our goals.
