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.

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

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 has been a tremendous advisor thru this process w/ our high school senior. He has great insight to a huge variety of schools (big/small/ east/ south/ west) and really helped open our son’s options, focus his research, provide feedback to improve his essay and applications… and relieve a lot of stress on us parents. Highly recommend Greg and all the help and insight he offers!

Greg Guss at CCC did an amazing job with helping with my essays. He made the process incredibly easy and a lot less stressful. He helped with finding topics for every single essay and made sure that they were well written and made the right edits.

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.

We are so happy we chose Greg Guss at Concierge College Consulting as our son’s college advisor. He truly exceeded our expectations. From our initial call, Greg made us feel at ease. We had endless questions and concerns as first-timers trying to navigate the college application process, and Greg listened and offered great advice. While our son knew that he wanted to be a business major, he really needed expert guidance on building a list of schools, writing a compelling Common App essay, and presenting himself as the strongest applicant possible. Greg was there every step of the way and worked with our son over an extended period to formulate and edit his essays, which ended up being fantastic. He really got to know our son and understand what motivated him and excited him. And best of all, our son found Greg really easy to work with and ended up being accepted to many top schools. Thank you, Greg!

My daughter worked with Greg on her essays for Stanford, Princeton and UCLA. In each case, he provided amazing feedback and insight to help made her essays personal and powerful. Although she may have gotten in without his help, Greg’s editing and writing skills helped her get in to all of her dreams schools.

My daughter worked with Greg throughout the application process. He made her feel great about her choices and made sure that she was well ahead of application deadlines. She got into her dream school at the University of Wisconsin and will be enrolling in the Fall. In addition, as a self-employed single mother, he was incredibly helpful with me on the financial side with FAFSA, etc. making sure that I save as much as possible on tuition. Thank you for everything!

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.

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.
