GBCEG is absolutely worth the investment Collaborating with CEG's counselor and essay coach was incredibly valuable; they transformed what can often be a daunting and tense process into a seamlessly smooth experience. Working with CEG's counselor took so much of the stress out of the process. Our counselor, Morgan, was always there to offer sound, experienced advice and really walked us through a pretty intense process of applying to several highly competitive schools. Morgan met with us regularly and patiently answered our many questions and gave the best advice. She always responded to our questions with numerous resources and suggestions. We are incredibly grateful for her partnership. My daughter's essay coach was a wonderful coach, who really helped her refine her voice and make her essays stand out in a way that was unique to her. She pushed my daughter when she needed to be pushed, and for that, I am very grateful as it took some of the stress off of our relationship. Ultimately, her coach, Shira, really helped my daughter craft some fantastic essays that (I believe) led her to gain acceptance to a number of fantastic schools. Overall, we are incredibly grateful and wholeheartedly recommend CEG. I'll conclude by saying that their approach, while at first seemed arduous, was absolutely worth the time and effort. Ethan and his team have created a program that's designed to deliver what I believe colleges genuinely want: an essay that is authentic and original; one that distills the essence of the student's experiences and perspectives into a compelling narrative, showcasing their unique voice and insights.

GBCollege Essay Guy is THE WAY TO GO! The insight into how college applications should read and the support in building cohesive essays and applications is invaluable and certainly something we would never have navigated well on our own. Would we have have had some success? Probably, but not the kind of application success that we had! My daughter was accepted to 5 of her 6 schools and is attending a top choice school-- cannot recommend enough.

GBWorking with CEG allowed me to really… Working with CEG allowed me to really hone in on how I could make my specific personality and interests stand out. Going into the college application process, I knew that there were going to be a lot of students like me in the application pool, especially to the school I applied to. I felt sort of stereotypical, but working with CEG I was able to uniquely and effectively craft-- for the personal statement and supplemental essays-- a story about myself using my unique interests and personality. CEG is not only a group of college-essay specialists, but creative and thoughtful listeners. I would highly recommend CEG to anyone applying to college.
