Hey Seth and Karen!
This is Erika from last summer’s college tour and I would love
for you guys to know that I only wound up applying to University of Tampa
for Film and Media Arts. I loved that University so much and it is all
thanks to you guys at Grand College Tours. I’d also love to share
the great news that on December 31st, I was accepted to the University
of Tampa for Fall of 2010! I am sooo excited and I am definitely giving
you guys all the credit on finding me the best thing that I could dream
of.

Hey Seth!
Hope all is well with you and your family. I just wanted
to THANK YOU, again for the experiences that both of our sons had last
spring. We have 4 children and it would have been next to impossible
to tour all of the 14 schools that you have on your tour! By the time
my husband and I took all of our kids to a college, tried to tour it,
met with administration, had lunch on campus…..we never would have
made it past 3 schools! Not only with scheduling, but the money to feed
and house 6 people! Additionally, my husband and I already went to college,
we did not want to tour 14 campuses, we are happy to just tour the college
he got accepted to!
The tour made our son apply to the colleges he liked. Our oldest, Anthony, applied
and got accepted to FSU, USF, UCF, FIT, UT and UNCG in North Carolina. He made
many of his final decisions by the results of his experiences on your tour! He
will by starting FSU this summer! (Sorry about USF Seth, it was his second choiceJ)
We will be touring the school later in March and are thrilled that we don’t
have to go to 5 other schools on the list) His brother Daniel who was also on
the tour is in 11th grade and already knows he wants to go to one of the private
Universities in FL, so he has much of his leg-work already done. Thanks again
and we wish you and your family well.
Fondly,
Maureen and Anthony

Hi Seth,
We all want to thank you for a great week. Our two boys said the week
was not only super informative but a fun time. They made new friends
and
as soon as they got home the computers were fired up and they were
all exchanging FB friend requests :)
Morgan had his heart set on Flagler before your trip and after looking
at other options, he now sees that a University is perhaps a better fit
than a 'college'…either way, I could not budge him from this before
your tour - although I love Flagler as well. As a parent, I can't begin
to tell you how much time and expense you saved us..and as a professional
in the Education field, you were able to balance the delicate teenage
line of learning about colleges and having a blast…I'm very impressed!
Our daughter, Lola, is going into her Sophomore year at Gibbons and I
definitely want her to take your tour.
Thank you SO MUCH ! I'm only hearing wonderful things..and I already
knew when I wasn’t getting texts back..that it was a successful
trip!
Kind regards,
Julia

Hi Seth and gang,
Just had to let you know what a great time Michael had with you on this
trip. In fact, he asked if he could go again in 2yrs (his senior
year) when his younger brother goes! You were great with the kids
and they really did become one giant group of friends!
Thanks for showing Michael a great time! Looking forward to seeing the
pix.
Sincerely,
Linda (Michael's Mom) College Tour 2011
