Marta Torres-Acevedo, Parent
So grateful for your incredible expertise, professionalism and follow through! From beginning to end, your insight into the process was invaluable. From the college applications to the grueling FAFSA and making sure we didn’t lose out on any medical accommodations, you were all over the details. Not to mention the critical role you played as a mediator between two divorced parents who may not have been able to remain as amicable as they normally do ;) Looking forward to an amazing future for Abby at Georgetown. Who knew that the most expensive college she applied to could give her the best scholarship! Donna knew. Thank you!!

WHO WE ARE
Committed to Excellence
Baines College Consulting began as a part-time charitable service offered to students who wanted to capitalize on insider information to gain an advantage when applying for colleges and accessing funds to help pay for it. Donna Baines, Founder, spent 10 years working as a Corporate Director in college admissions with juniors and seniors in High School responsible for creating and training motivational seminars that would enhance a students propensity to complete high school and continue their education in markets such as Philadelphia, Newark, Trenton, Houston, Dallas, Birmingham, Montgomery, and Akron.
Kori Hutton attended HBCU, Hampton University, and is a proud and bold advocate for students to attend Historically Black Colleges and Universities. She not only has the first-hand experience with being a student and product of an HBCU; she also has taken her eldest daughter, Mykah, through the process as she prepared to attend North Carolina Central University.
“Historically Black Colleges and Universities were created during a time when African American students were not allowed to attend school with our Caucasian brothers and sisters. That is no longer our story. We now experience the privilege of being able to attend a university that not only provides us with an excellent education, but allows us to honor the legacy, struggle, and bold examples that our ancestors have left us. I am excited to expand the minds of our youth and to show them the options that are available to them. Education is a beautiful thing, but an HBCU education is not just beautiful. It’s excellence, It’s family, It’s tradition, it’s culture, it’s just….different.”
