See what my clients have said about working with me.
“My family made an excellent decision when we hired Jane McGuire to work with our son on his college applications. We hired Jane because she has an excellent reputation as a college application processor and because of this, she is on the cutting edge on what colleges are looking for when processing applications and more importantly the essay questions. We do not live in the same town as Jane but my son used SKYPE and it worked seamlessly for us. Flexible appointments were scheduled between Jane and our son and our son could stop a current activity and SKYPE with Jane and work through applications when the appointment time rolled around. My son applied to multiple colleges and they all used different application processes. Due dates and questions varied and Jane kept our son on task and had all applications done and sent it well before the application deadline. I cannot recommend Jane McGuire highly enough.”
“[After receiving an offer of admissions from St. Andrew’s in Scotland]
JANE, I AM IN SHOCK! I JUST GOT THIS! CAN’T BELIEVE THIS!
Thank you so much for helping with my essay and application! I couldn’t have gotten in without you!
”
“Hi Jane, I just wanted to let you know that I’m going to UVA next year. Thanks again for all your help, I’m not sure I’d be going to UVA without you.”
“We really appreciate all the help you are giving the kids with your insights and advice. It helps diffuse the stress when they know they’ve got someone like you to look over their applications.

“Jane McGuire is an invaluable college counselor and teacher, and a gem of a person. I owe her a tremendous amount from the years I was her student, and I recommend her expertise as highly as it is possible to recommend!”
“My time with Mrs. Jane McGuire was very valuable because she truly understands the college process. She encouraged me to keep my voice in my college essay, and really helped me bring out the message that I was trying to convey. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to apply to college!”
“I have NEVER heard my daughter say something like this, but kudos to you!! I asked her if she enjoyed working with you, she said, “YES”; I asked her if she thought it helped, she said, “Absolutely”; then she said, “Mom, Mrs. Jane is one of those people that you REALLY hope likes you!”
High praise Mrs. Jane!!

“Thanks so much for working with Ashley. I can’t begin to tell you how helpful it was for both me and Ashley. It helped to minimize tension regarding our relationship, and her time frame, essays, etc. Ashley thoroughly enjoyed working with you, it was such a good match for her. Sometimes I think she met with you just to talk to you, which I think is a great thing.

“College decisions are going well - I’ve gotten into Clemson, UVA, W&M, and Franklin and Marshall, and was waitlisted at BC (which I’m not too torn up about, seeing as I didn’t really want to go there after seeing how much snow they got this year!). I hear back from Emory tomorrow! School is going well, too :) I finally feel like a senior, now, but hopefully the senioritis will wait until I am almost done...
Thanks for all your help over the past few months!!.....
Update: Got accepted into Emory, as well! Now I have lots of choices....

“Thank YOU! Thank you for all the guidance and help, because I am absolutely sure your work with our son helped change the perceptions. I am also thankful that I could vent a little to someone kindly—that helped as well! ”
“I got in!! Thank you so much for all your help. I really don’t think we would have come up with the “brain idea” if you hadn’t been in the picture, and I really think that was a deciding factor in the application. I’ll be sure to make you proud at UVa!
Many, many, MANY thanks!
”
“This evening I heard back from Rice and I was accepted! Thank you so much for your help, support, and encouragement throughout this lengthy process as I do not think I could have done it without your guidance. I’m so excited! Thanks for everything!
”
“I have been meaning to reach out! I was recently accepted to UVA and UNC! I am thrilled and can’t thank you enough for your help with this process!
”
“Thanks so much for what you did to help my daughter find her self-confidence and get through this process. You really helped her mindset, and that was huge in her going for it as she did. If you ever want a reference, let me know. I’d be happy to sing your praises anytime!
”
“Hi Jane, I’m extremely excited to tell you that I’ve been admitted into the University of Virginia. I really appreciate your help throughout the transfer process and am very excited about the future of my education.”
“Thanks so much for your investment in our kids futures and guiding them through the process. My husband just said “can Jane do the same for us?:)”
”
“Sarah is thrilled to be going to her first choice college. You were a great help! Thanks!”
“Yes, thank you , Jane. You gave our girl exterior validation that we was much needed. Ever since she got accepted to Edinburgh, she (and we!) have calmed down a great deal and life is actually quite pleasant right now. We are enjoying each other’s company with a new level of awareness … that it won’t be like this for long, so we need to savor it!
