Lockwood College Prep

We hired Andy at the end of our son's sophomore year. It was the best thing we ever did! We took the "soup to nuts" package and his services paid for themselves. Our son was ultimately accepted at all of the schools that he applied at and offered 9 generous scholarships. Andy's in-depth knowledge and assistance guided our family through this very stressful process; we were able to maximize our son's options and avoid some of the pitfalls that can happen along the way. His wife, Pearl, is awesome as well. She handles all of the financial aid stuff and she made sure everything we needed was filed on time for every school. Our family is very happy with Lockwood College Consulting and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. We look forward to working with the Lockwoods again for our next son.

Andy, I just wanted to express my deepest appreciation for the exceptional job you and your team did in helping my son navigate the challenging journey to college. Your guidance and support throughout this process were invaluable. You patiently answered all our questions and made it easier for us to make informed decisions. Because of your continuous support and my son's efforts, he was able to secure a spot at his dream college and we could not be more excited about it. We are confident that he is on the path to a bright future, thanks in large part to you and your teams unwavering support and guidance. We feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Lockwood College Prep!!! Read more >

Our family signed on for college financial aid advising and i cannot stress enough, how much stress was reduced by having the Lockwoods on board to help us navigate our first kid going to college. From submitting CSS & FAFSA in this bonkers time to negotiating aid, they were responsive, creative and effective! When our initial aid offer wasn't as strong as we hoped, Andy reviewed our small business P&L and helped us make the case for more funds! It worked! We actually got to a place where we can make it work and send our son to his #1 school! Read more >

My son and I highly recommend Lockwood college prep. My son enjoyed working with Andy; he found him funny, approachable, and motivating. While my son got into his dream school, I continued to use Lockwood's services to fill out the FAFSA forms. Pearl is both honest and savvy when number-crunching. I often recommended their services to others. Read more >

Andy and Pearl were both invaluable from start to finish as were trying to help our oldest son navigate the college application process! Andy helped us create a well-balanced list of schools and showed us how to effectively communicate not only Harry's accomplishments, but who he is and what he has to offer the colleges on his list. Pearl made the process of financial aid forms completely stress-free. Harry was admitted into his dream school as well as most others on his list, and we could not be more pleased with the Lockwood team! Read more >

Andy's services helped our child earn a crazy high ACT score which really helped with her merit aid award and getting into her honors college program! Pearl was helpful on the financial aid stuff. Read more >
