What People Are Saying

“I want to thank Lamya for helping our daughter “Y” getting into her university in the United States. From the beginning, she went above and beyond. She spent a lot of time looking into different universities, helping us with all the paperwork and giving us great advice on writing the essays for the applications. Her attention to detail made everything a lot easier for us. Plus, she was always there to check over everything and make sure we had everything sorted.

It really took a lot of stress off our shoulders, especially because it was the year of CoronaVirus. Her support meant a lot to us and it showed her genuine care for our daughter’s future.

She is truly special, her kindness and support have truly touched our hearts. We will always be thankful for what she has done.

“Big thank you to Clauss!  The college process is overwhelming and much different than it was when I went through it a student.   Having an expert in this arena help guide my daughter through this journey was an invaluable support.   Clauss has successfully navigated this process several times a parent as well as a mentor and counselor.  Her knowledge and expertise was instrumental to helping my daughter put together a well-balanced college list and an application strategy that resulted in multiple offers from top schools, many of which also included generous merit awards.   Clauss was always available to answer questions and think through next steps.  Her insight and experience provided us with the clarity needed to navigate the complexity of the process and her support along the way greatly alleviated the stress.

We cannot thank Clauss enough for all she did to help us during an extremely busy and uncertain time.   I offer my strongest recommendation to others embarking on the college application journey.  Thank you, Clauss, for being there for us throughout ours!

“Not only was Clauss an invaluable asset during my college application process, but she was extremely helpful during the decision-making process. Her in-depth knowledge on the niches of different universities informed my decision to select Georgetown University over UCLA, USC, and UC Berkeley. Going into my senior year at Georgetown, I am confident that this it was the best choice.
