“Jillian is the most phenomenal mentor I could ask for to have guided me through the college application process. She was truly dedicated to helping me find the school that was the right fit for me. Besides assisting me with the nuts and bolts, such as filling out the Common App, Jillian made an effort to get to know me as a person. This was extremely helpful when it came to writing my personal statement and supplemental essays. She helped me brainstorm ideas for each essay, and helped me workshop and edit the final products. When I was stuck on a prompt, Jillian helped me come up with ideas that represented who I was but also were effective in building my application. Jillian is exceptional because she understands each student she works with on a personal level, which makes her guidance very effective. With her help, I am extremely happy in college and found the school I belong at.”
“When I started the application process, I was a nervous and confused wreck. Jillian’s vast knowledge, incredible support, and invaluable advice led me to feel like a confident, educated college applicant. Her help in personalizing my college search, providing essential feedback throughout the essay writing process, and invariably answering all of my questions and concerns allowed me to submit applications of which I am very proud. I would highly recommend Jillian to anyone in the college application process!”

“Thank you [Mandee] for connecting us with Jillian. As you promised, we love her and are excited to be working with her. I feel 1,000% better about the college process knowing that Jillian will help us navigate this whole journey. Her kindness, patience, enthusiasm, insights, and responsiveness were evident from Day 1. After only a few meetings, I already feel like she really cares about J and his passions, which truly warms my heart and gives me peace of mind. I’m grateful to your team for being there for our family, and we are really excited to work with ICC.”

“I just wanted to write you a quick thank you note for helping coordinate Jillian coming to one of our sessions. I also wanted to let you know that it was a huge success and that the girls definitely benefitted from all of the resources and advice Jillian gave! I cannot thank you enough for coordinating this pro-bono service for my students. I know that they appreciated Jillian coming in and that they will continue to do so as they approach their senior year. The college counselor at their high school is only one person for 500 or so students so having that time where a counselor is solely focused on them and their questions is truly an experience I do not know whether or not they would have received. So, thank you so incredibly much for helping me make sure that they received this wonderful opportunity that I doubt they would have gotten.”
