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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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 🙂
