College Admissions Consulting The Athletic Recruitment Process Written by Shannon Vasconceloson May 31st, 2023 I came to College Coach with close to 10 years of experience in college financial aid offices. I began my career at Boston University, where I counseled students and their parents on the financial aid process and reviewed undergraduate financial aid applications.
