What Students, Parents and Guidance Counselors Are Saying

Updated testimonials and feedback from our validators

With a caseload of hundreds of students, it's impossible to give each one the personalized attention they deserve. NXT has the potential to become a valuable resource connecting students/parents with colleges outside of the public school system. It empowers students and parents to take ownership of the search with a tool I trust, and it provides clarity long after they've left my office. It's a game-changer!

Mrs. Read

Pinellas County high school guidance counselor

I thought I knew all the schools in my area, but NXT showed me a perfect fit I never would have found. It matched me with a local program that actually has my major and I had no idea about this before using it. It made me excited about my options instead of stressed on where to go and how to apply.

Dominic Vazquez

High School Senior

The college search felt overwhelming. We were worried about our child making a decision that would lead to overwhelming debt. NXT simplified everything by showing us realistic, affordable options that were still a great fit. It gave us the confidence to support our child's dreams without financial fear.
