Student Stories
Here’s what families say about working with Brilliant Future CC.
“Sadia is an outstanding mentor—friendly, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. She keeps students organized, strengthens their applications, and provides clear, actionable feedback that makes the college process far less stressful. Her guidance helped me present clean, focused work and ultimately earn admission to my top-choice school—Princeton with a full-ride scholarship. I highly recommend.”
“I cannot recommend Sadia and Brilliant Future CC highly enough! After a somewhat bumpy freshman year, I started working with Sadia as a sophomore, and she completely turned my high school trajectory around. She was there for me every step of the way—from strategic course selection to helping me secure valuable internships. One of the biggest highlights was her guidance in helping me get accepted into the highly competitive COSMOS summer program at UCSD. Thanks to her exceptional support, I was accepted into top-tier engineering programs like Purdue, UMich Ann Arbor, and Texas A&M. Ultimately, I committed to UC Davis for Electrical Engineering. Her working style is truly exceptional.”
“I was always apprehensive about working with counselors—I was scared my work wouldn’t be my own, and my authenticity would get lost in translation. Working with Ms. Sadia turned out to be one of my best experiences ever. With her help I was not only able to get into my dream school, but also every UC campus. The best thing about Ms. Sadia was her conviction to authenticity—she always left it up to me to decide what I wanted to add, what to remove, and how I wanted my writing to flow. She went above and beyond, spending countless late nights helping me craft essays.”
“Because of Ms. Saadia and her expertise, I was able to attend my dream university. She kept me on track with my applications and assisted me with drafting my college essays. She is incredibly compassionate, understanding, and knowledgeable—she knew how to bring out the best in me and showcase my accomplishments authentically. Ms. Saadia is someone that I am honored to call both my counselor and my friend.”
“Ms. Sadia is an extremely helpful and compassionate counselor. She helped me step-by-step with figuring out the topics of each of my essays and guided me through my UC application, making sure I filled out every single component. Ms. Sadia makes sure that every student feels confident with their application and works through every challenge that students face.”
“Ms. Saadia is a very bright, caring, and compassionate counselor. She assisted me in unimaginable ways and continuously pushed me to do better when I doubted myself. She is not afraid to help her students take on all of the challenges that come with applying to college—she will go above and beyond. I feel that I have not just met a counselor, but gained a mentor.”
“Enjoyed working with Saadia. Very thorough search of universities and advice on where to apply. Went above and beyond in guiding my son in course selection and in recommending what students can do to improve admission chances. Followed up on admitted universities and guided son through which one was best for him.”
