Concierge College Consulting

When we began the college application journey with our oldest son, we quickly realized how overwhelming and complex the process could be. We turned to the internet for help, which led to a whole new project?finding the right person to guide us. From our very first conversation with Greg, we knew we had found exactly what we were looking for. His experience was top-notch, and his thoughtful, methodical approach gave us the confidence we needed. More than that, Greg truly cared?not just about the process, but

Working with Greg Guss has been an absolute game-changer in our college application journey. His depth of knowledge, strategic approach, and genuine care for students set him apart from anyone else in the field.

Navigating the college application process is overwhelming. Greg helped my daughter with every aspect of the process! He meet with us in person and was available by phone anytime we needed him. His background as a writer was key in guiding Ella on her essays for applications. We are happy to say that Greg?s dedication to meeting deadlines and understanding the best college choices for Ella helped her to secure a spot at one of her top choices! Every penny spent is well worth it! I recommend Greg Guss witho

Hiring a college advisor was worth every penny for the amazing schools my sons get to choose from. Greg was a calming influence in what I feared would be a stressful process. But, working with Greg, he went above and beyond the applications and college list to instill confidence in both of my sons about their majors and career paths. Both of my boys are so proud of their essays (Greg was a huge help here) and the choices they now have for their future. Greg is as personable as he is knowledgable. Don't thin

We are completely new to the college system and many friends shared how they regretted letting the college process dominate conversations with their teenager or being overly influenced by other?s experiences. I recognized the same pattern starting for our family and decided to give our son somebody with expertise who he could work freely with and to keep us (the parents) in check so that we didn't overly influence his decisions and writing. Greg was an invaluable, personable, and caring resource throughout

Greg has been amazing!!! When beginning this process with my son who is going into his sophomore year now I was so worried ! Greg made the application process and timelines/deadlines achievable for my son! He helped my son with writing his essay and encouraged him throughout the process! So of course now that my daughter is graduating and finding her college, we needed Greg to do his magic! Which he did!!!!! He encouraged and helped guide her to find the school of her dreams! He also encouraged her to take

We started the college application journey with another counselor, but after one call with Greg at Concierge College Consulting, we knew we had to make the switch?and we're so glad we did. Greg is our second college counselor, and the difference has been night and day. He's extremely knowledgeable, incredibly responsive, and most importantly, he genuinely cares about helping your child find the right college fit. Greg made what is often a very stressful process feel so much more manageable. He guided our h

As a senior in high school I was super stressed about my college applications, but Greg helped me throughout the whole process. We met a few times and he helped me compile a list of schools to apply to, even a few that I wasn't completely considering at first. He was always available for questions when I had them, and made writing college essays less stressful. Greg is super positive and supported me through the whole process! Highly reccomend!

I met Greg 2 years ago when he started helping my brother with college applications and last year began working with me! He is extremely knowledgeable as well as personable!! Coming from someone who had no idea how this process worked nor where I wanted to go for college, he has guided me to finally be able to make my decision! He made my entire college journey as stress free as possible and made it exciting!! Greg truly is the best?so helpful and understanding!! Thank you Greg!!!

Greg Guss has helped two of our children get into great schools, and is currently working with our third! He has really gotten to know our kids so well and helped them figure out which schools to apply to. He helped them decide what to highlight on their applications and was a great coach with their essays! Before we started the college application journey, we didn't realize how complicated the process was- it was so helpful to our kids to have the advice of someone so knowledgeable and experienced.

I can' express how great Greg at Concierge College Consulting was in preparing us during my daughter's application process! He has a tremendous fund of knowledge and experience in helping kids apply for desirable colleges. Greg made great recommmendations in courses to take during the year, what courses to take during the summer to improve my daughter's chance of being selected to a prestigious college, what community service activities to become involved in, and especially how to write a good essay. Under

Working with Concierge College Consulting was truly one of the best decisions I made during my college application process. From the very beginning, Greg provided me with much needed structure, clarity, and encouragement. He really took the time to understand my personality, interests, and goals, and through that process, he helped me find the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I had never even considered it seriously before, but Greg really helped me to see how perfect it was for me and my goals. Now as I fi

I can't recommend Greg enough! He was an invaluable resource in helping Luke get into his top choice (UCLA). Greg took the time to get to know Luke to be able to coach and mentor him throughout the whole process. (incl. choosing schools/majors, writing essays, etc.) He's extremely responsive and caring throughout the entire process.

Greg was a huge help during my college admissions process. He helped me through the entire thing and made it feel way more manageable and less overwhelming as a high school senior. From choosing what schools to apply to and helping me write my essays, I had his guidance every step of the way. I am super grateful for Greg's support and highly recommend Concierge College Consulting.

Greg is nothing short of exceptional at what he does. He helped me refine every aspect of my applications, walking me through each and every detail and answer any and all questions I had. My essays went from jumbled brain-dumps to fully formed and developed manifestos in a matter of days, and I cannot thank him enough. He understands the process better than anyone, and I cannot recommend his services enough.

Gregg was beyond helpful. He treated my daughter as if she was his own. His compassion and knowledge was truly remarkable. If believe without his help my daughter would not be on her way to 4 years abroad for an experience that will go way beyond academics. He was a pleasure and always available when we had any questions or reassurance. Thank you Gregg..

Greg was my college counselor from fall of 2023 to spring of 2024. His advice was extremely helpful in developing my application and making my decision! He recommended a college that I had never heard of (College of William and Mary), which I now attend! I do not believe I would be in nearly as good of a position without Greg's guidance. Highly recommend!

Greg is very knowledgeable and was instrumental in helping our son with his essays and the application process when transferring into a four year university. I highly recommend working with Greg!

Having Greg Gus as a College Consultant made my life transitioning to college much easier than I initially expected. I was able to have a second pair of eyes look over my writing, which helped my gain acceptance to schools that I originally considered to be far out of reach. Lastly, Greg aided me through making my final decision by providing tips along the way which make the whole process very simple and stress-free!

Couldn't be happier with the relationship and experience we have had with Greg. Trying to navigate the college application process fraught with a teenager who, under stress, and little understanding of expectations, is more than even two parents can handle. Not only did Greg calm a couple of nervous parents, but led our son towards multiple acceptance outcomes that match his aspirations and will be a great fit for him. The road of our children's lives will still have bumps, but a lot less jarring with G

We got a relatively late start on college applications, and were looking for someone to help our son Dante navigate the process. One of his high school basketball teammate?s parents suggested we contact Greg Guss, and we are very glad we did! Greg made sure Dante applied to a variety of colleges, some where he could compete in intercollegiate basketball and track, and others where he would have focused only on academics. Greg helped Dante meet all his application deadlines, offered advice about his essays,

Greg was an incredible college counselor and there is no way I'd at my dream school today if it weren't for him. From helping me formulate my essays, articulate my extracurriculars, and staying true to myself and my who I am and showcasing that as much as possible on my application, to finding the schools that are the best fit for me, Greg has been awesome. Thank you so much for everything.

We found Greg through a personal recommendation, and were thrilled with the experience and results. Greg gave personalized attention, and also had a low key approach to what was a very stressful time for our high schooler (and parents!). He helped our daughter tremendously. He helped her prioritize what needed to be done, and gave great advice on things like school selection and essay topics. He suggested schools she hadn't thought of as well. The stress level in our family immediately went down because

Greg was excellent! He worked closely with my daughter and us to ensure that all our questions were answered, and he interviewed us to capture my daughter?s vision for her essay. She was accepted to each college that she applied to and the best part she was accepted to her top choice. We highly recommend Greg. He was professional and fully committed to his profession.

Greg worked with our daughter (SoCal HS senior ?25) beginning her junior year. He also advised on the colleges for our spring break tour to the East Coast. As a former journalist and writer, Greg was able to help our daughter fine-tune her story. My wife and I were hands off, and didn't read the essays until submitted. That's the type of trust and confidence that Greg builds with his students and parents. The essay brought tears to our eyes. And as of this writing, our daughter is 4 for 4 in acceptances t

I was advised by Greg Guss, my college counselor who helped me plan my college applications from the middle of my junior year. He assisted me in finding programs that had what I wanted (academics and music) and helped me find ways to demonstrate my leadership ability to put on my applications. He was very attentive, helped me with supplemental writings, and even travelled to watch me perform at a summer program to assess and understand my artistic skills. I was accepted to two Ivy League schools and the Joh

Nothing but fantastic things to say about Greg and his work - my daughter and I could not have done the college process without him, he is not only knowledgeable but is very transparent and honest about what we can can't accomplish with the process.

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

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

I am so grateful to have been able to work with Greg Guss as my college advisor. I went into the college application process totally blind. I had what seemed like thousands (??) of questions, but Greg answered all of them happily and provided abundant information regarding everything I was concerned and/or confused about. I quickly learned that I didn't need to feel nervous or fear judgement in his office. Greg offered me so much insight into the application and financial aid processes, guided me toward s

Greg made the application process much less stressful by simplifying and streamlining it, and I am very thankful to have had him as my advisor.

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.

A great college counselor! Gave me valuable feedback, helped me figure out what colleges to apply to, and kept me on track with a super busy application season! Can't recommend him enough.

Greg has been a life saver for college admissions. He has a very grounded and holistic approach to the admissions process, taking the whole child into consideration (ie: interests, goals, financials, environment, culture, etc). One thing I will say, is if you - can get started sooner than we did, which was senior year-yikes! This way your kiddo has sufficient time to really research their college options. My son first approached Greg with a list of mostly top 20 schools?Greg helped him to get a solid list o

Greg is amazing, he helped me two separate application years and got me amazing results both times. Would highly recommend!

I could not recommend this service more highly and specifically our consultant, Greg, was outstanding. His advice was invaluable and completely comprehensive. He was always available and extremely helpful in all situations.

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!

Concierge College Counseling has done an outstanding job assisting our daughter with the college application process. We worked with Greg Guss, and in our first meeting, I felt that we had made the right choice to work with CCC. Our daughter was understandably nervous about the meeting, but Greg had a friendly and welcoming demeanor that put her at ease. He asked our daughter about her academic interests but he also asked about her personality (do you see yourself as outgoing, or more reserved? Questions

We can't say enough about the professionalism, knowledge, and care that Greg Guss gave our son during his college search.
