Greg Guss was immensely helpful to our son going through the overwhelming college application process. Greg established a trusting, professional and friendly rapport with our son which allowed our son to feel free and comfortable enough to explore his thoughts, strengths, weaknesses and aspirations. He was always a text away to help answer questions, provide constructive feedback and give reassurance. Greg made this daunting process feel manageable and was a great support. I wholeheartedly recommend Greg to be your child’s college counselor 🙂

Greg was such a great help during the entire college decision process. From helping me decide what school would set me up best for my intended career after graduating, to giving me advice regarding how to financially maneuver the rising cost of an undergraduate education. Additionally, he is still helping me edit my essays for scholarships as a rising freshman in college which has been invaluable.

Greg Guss at Concierge College Consulting has been a huge help in navigating the college application cycle for our son. At a time when the undergraduate landscape has been shifting so dramatically, Greg helped him craft a broad yet targeted list of schools that fit his qualifications and aspirations in the competitive Computer Science field. Greg’s guidance in helping find the right topic and theme for his Common App essay was invaluable. He’s patient, kind, thoughtful and great with students!
No matter what type of program your student is looking for, Greg has the expertise to listen to your child and support them through the ever changing and increasingly selective college admission process. Our son was admitted early action to one of his top choices and is now deciding between two really strong programs.

Being from another country, my parents and I had no clue how to begin the college process. Thankfully, we found Greg, who taught me the ins and outs about the entire college application. What I thought was going to be a very stressful time in my life turned out to be smooth and easy under his guidance. I looked forward to my weekly meetings during which he guided me through writing my essays. His feedback was instrumental in my eventual success. I was accepted into my dream schools along with some generous scholarship offers. Greg was definitely a great return on my investment.

The college admittance process is so confusing, investing in a college counselor was the best decision we could have made during this time. it took the pressure off us as parents, but most importantly took the stress off of our son. Greg was available to him whenever he needed, either in person or by phone/text. Greg helped him navigate the process step by step, professionally edited his essays and gave him a solid list of top and back up schools to apply for. Thank you Greg for helping to make the college process a more pleasant experience for us and our son.

Extremely thorough with college list accumulation, every college chosen to apply to was carefully selected to match my goals and aspirations. I ended up getting into my target school, and found the application process much simpler than it seemed due to the amount of guidance I received along the way, whether it be essay writing, information filling, or deadline managing. Working with Concierge with Greg was a good experience, it has my recommendation!

Greg was immensely helpful to our daughter throughout the college application process. Working with him directly, gave her ownership in the process of researching colleges, preparing her essays, and completing all applications in a timely manner. With Greg’s help, our daughter got through what can be an extremely stressful process with confidence and well ahead of schedule! A HUGE plus is that Greg has visited practically EVERY campus and has a knack for getting to know your student and steering them in the right direction! Also worth mentioning is the positive impact of his services on our family. My husband and I were able to take a back seat while the two of them worked together to assess and fulfill our daughter’s dreams.

I was overwhelmed, stressed, confused and frustrated beyond belief trying to navigate the waters as my daughter was preparing for college, a friend recommended I reach out to Greg. After a brief 15-20 minute consultation, it was clear that Greg had a greater understanding of my daughters options than we had ever envisioned. We felt incredibly comfortable moving forward with Greg to help with the entire process. He worked exclusively with my daughter (I had little to no involvement after the initial consultation) and was able to come up with a list of schools where he KNEW she would fit in and met all of her criteria. And the checklist was NOT SMALL. Not one of these schools was even on our radar going into this process.
As the acceptance letters started rolling in ,we began touring the campuses and after 6 different visits we stepped foot onto the campus at the University of Oregon. My Daughter felt right at home from the minute we got there and she signed her letter of intent on the same day and we are all so excited.
There is a reason we hire experts for specific tasks in life. There is so much riding on this decision and process and unless you are an expert, you are a novice! Go with a company that truly cares. I guess that was one of the greatest things about working with Greg. He didn’t act like he cared, HE CARED. I don’t know if you can put a price on that kind of help. Thank you once again Greg and GO DUCKS

Absolutely wonderful experience working with Greg. His knowledge, organizational skills, positive and creative approach, resulted in my son being accepted to almost every universities he applied to, including his top choice – UCLA. Greg genuinely cares and always available for any questions in this quite intense process. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! It couldn’t turn out any better! I highly recommend to work with Greg.

We can’t say enough about the professionalism, knowledge, and care that Greg Guss gave our son during his college search. He was on top of everything, and so helpful knowing which colleges and universities would best suit him. He helped with staying on top of deadlines and essays. We could not have asked for a better experience, and could not have done it without him.

Greg has provided superior coaching and professionalism to our graduating son. From our initial conversation he took time to explain this challenge process and listen to our needs. We would honestly be lost without his guidance due to current college acceptance competitiveness. I have seen our son mature and develop more independence because of this. Best of all he has been accepted to most schools that we never thought were a possibility and we’re still waiting to hear back from the remaining schools. Our family is so grateful for Greg’s knowledgeable wisdom throughout this experience. We would highly recommend this investment for any high school student.
