TESTIMONIALS

  • Just wanted to say thank you for the bottom of my heart. I was truly lost in this whole process and about to give up before I came to I Too Can. Being apart of this program gave me measurable and achievable goals to work towards. Thank you for taking the time to sort through my jumbled thoughts and writing, without judgment even as you read some pretty personal experiences. I will never forget your kindness, and how you took me seriously even though I was far from being a competitive candidate. I knew mentors were important but I didn't truly understand the impact they could have until I had experienced it myself. I will definitely be recommending this to any friends I know who will go through the process.
  • "Mentors in I Too Can were incredibly supportive and offered me a great deal of constructive criticism and thorough insight on essay content and quality. I appreciated the fact that the advice given was also tailored towards the universities that we were applying for, which is important considering that Canadian universities are diverse in their expectations and requirements. I appreciated the patience and passion the mentors had, it definitely improved the quality of my application! Thank you "I Too Can"!"
