"I think you do an incredible job, Jane. You’re available, attentive to detail, knowledgeable, and supportive. Even before our son was admitted to his early decision choice, we were very grateful for your insight, guidance, intelligence, and hard work. Afterwards, we were even more so!" --
Eileen K., New Rochelle, NY
"Jane, thank you for your help throughout this past year. You helped us every step of the way, from deciding which colleges to visit to completing the applications and essays. Our daughter got into her first choice school and she is thrilled. We sincerely appreciate all the time and effort you put into our college process; we could not have done it without you." -- Debora Z., Larchmont, NY
"I have to thank you for your help in the college process. Your advice on picking the 'best fit' school, instead of the school with the most recognizable bumper sticker, kept me sane. I am the only person I know of who had fun applying to college."
-- Audrey W., Larchmont, NY
"After assessing my daughter's strengths and preferences, Jane gave us a list of colleges that fit her interests. We weren't overwhelmed with choices. She helped us through the whole process, including reminders of important deadlines. I also appreciated the pertinent articles she gathered and forwarded to us. It could have been a lot more stressful and confusing without Jane."
-- Catherine W., Larchmont, NY
"Jane, we can't thank you enough for bringing sanity and clarity to the maze that is today's college application process. Your insight into the colleges was invaluable and you kept providing the most updated information right up until the end. You never stopped! You also provided us with a strategy to follow both for our campus visits and the applications themselves. This gave our family a measure of confidence that made the experience so much easier. Thank you again for all you've done".

"Jane Hoffman was very helpful in our search for a college for our daughter. She went above and beyond what was required to research options for us, placing calls to her contacts regarding specific questions and generally providing us with a lot of material about each school in which we were interested. While I knew a lot about some schools, I knew nothing about others and she was very helpful in trying to match schools to our daughter's strengths and interests. I would not hesitate to recommend Jane for the college guidance process."
-- Deborah M., Larchmont, NY
"Jane was an absolute pleasure to work with on our daughter's college search and application process. She is professional, very thorough, and knowledgeable. She is willing to work hard and remained accessible to both us and our daughter throughout the process. She also has or finds answers to every question any of us had. And the best part is that our daughter got into several schools, any of which would be right for her, so Jane's guidance and suggestions were right on target. I highly recommend her as a college guidance person. It really eases the process to have her on your team."
-- Deborah W., Larchmont, NY
"When our son, Nathaniel, entered the last quarter of his high school junior year, the college search was no longer something around the corner. It was staring us in the face. The daunting challenge it presented was quite different from the days when my wife and I applied 30 years ago. Nowadays there are so many choices of colleges, each one with differing permutations of academic programs, campus settings and financial aid programs (merit money and such) that we did not know how we would find the time to research all this, not to mention helping focus our son's energies on the most appropriate choices. The good news is that this gargantuan task of preparing for college turned out to be manageable and comprehensible once we hired Jane as a college consultant. She took the time to get to know our son's academic strengths and weaknesses, tirelessly researched and answered hundreds of questions, helped create a strategy to find colleges that fit our son, provided a timetable of tasks that needed to be accomplished and most importantly collaborated with Nathaniel to develop a portfolio that accurately highlighted the unique person he is. A happy ending to this journey is that Nathaniel has been accepted to all the colleges he applied to. My wife and I have no doubt that Jane's enthusiasm and expertise helped get him there. I highly recommend that you add her to your team."

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for helping me decide. Not only did you make this process 1,000 times easier but I also can't guarantee that I would have chosen x college for my early decision and may not even have gotten in if it weren't for you." -- Robert P., New Rochelle, NY
