"You were a fantastic support to him and incredibly generous with your time and efforts."

“You were amazing and thankfully articulated the urgency of [our] situation when we started working with you. Matthew said you were the only person who helped him and that your system made sense out of the complicated application process. You were a fantastic support to him and incredibly generous with your time and efforts. We are especially grateful given our last minute requestion work with you. We felt the sincerity of your commitment to work with him and appreciated your ability to give us a push when needed. The other people we worked with, all personally recommended, were not helpful. I told Matthew that I made a lot of mistakes the first time around and will always be grateful you bailed us out to help him reach his end goal successfully.”

- Christine, Parent

“Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. Amy is thrilled with her acceptance to Davidson and we couldn’t be happier! You made the college application process feasible, livable, and survivable. I think Amy actually enjoyed the journey. I was impressed with how prepared she was, way before the deadlines.”

"I am able to attend my dream school because of Lauren’s support and guidance, and I will never be able to thank her enough."

“I began meeting with Lauren during the middle of my sophomore year. To be honest, I had zero clue about the college process and I wasn’t very keen on getting started. But after meeting with Lauren for the first time, I knew that I was gifted with an amazing mentor and friend. Lauren helped me get through difficult times during the college search process, and whenever I felt like I wasn’t going to end up anywhere, she would help me get back on my feet and push me forward. I am able to attend my dream school because of Lauren’s support and guidance, and I will never be able to thank her enough.”

- Christina, Student

“Lauren is perfectly aligned to do this work, and anyone who is lucky enough to partner with her will know it right away. The personal attention she gives her students is impressive. It is evident that Lauren truly cares about getting to know each student, and she uses that knowledge to guide them toward the perfect schools for them. Just as important, though, this rewarding deep dive Lauren has her students take upon themselves gives them the gift of knowing themselves better. Together with her passion and knowledge, your family will feel very well taken care of on this exciting and important journey.” 

- Jill, Parent

"Lauren truly cares about getting to know each student, and she uses that knowledge to guide them toward the perfect schools for them."

"Lauren made everything that was stressful about the system so easy and smooth,"

“Lauren helped me so much with my whole college endeavor. When I started off looking for colleges, I didn't know where to start or what to do. Lauren made everything that was stressful about the system so easy and smooth, from just finding what colleges would fit me well to supporting me as I wrote and submitted my applications. She was an enormous help and I don't know what I would have done without her.” 

– Sean, Student

"When I was a junior in high school I remember the college process being very overwhelming and too much to handle alone. Mrs. Jackson helped me break down the process into smaller pieces that were more manageable. Having someone to guide me and be accountable to during that busy time made all the difference with getting me into a college that I would love. Mrs. Jackson really opened my eyes to all the different aspects of college life that I had to think about when making my decision. Overall, my experience was excellent with Mrs. Jackson as my college counselor and I would highly recommend her to any high school student going through the college application process." 

- Sarah, Student

"I would highly recommend her to any high school student going through the college application process."

“The college application process can be overwhelming for any family, but particularly for those who have chosen to homeschool. We learned that there are many documents and requirements that traditional schools provide for their students. As a homeschool parent/administrator, I had to create many of those documents, such as our school homeschool profile and transcripts for all four years of high school. I had confidence that I would not have had without her exceptional knowledge of the process. She knew exactly what we needed, and just as important, when we needed to supply the information that colleges required from us. Additionally, Lauren took Sean through a variety of aptitude tests and interest inventories that helped him identify areas of strength. These test results then provided information on what fields of study might capitalize on Sean’s particular academic strengths and interests, and Lauren walked him through all of this valuable information. Finally, Lauren took the time to get to know Sean. He looked forward to spending time with her, and she motivated him to meet application deadlines. Lauren engaged Sean in important conversations about what college experience would suit his personality and expectations best. Thanks to Lauren Jackson, Sean applied to schools that truly reflected who he is as a student and as a person. With Lauren’s help, Sean was offered admission, as well as scholarships, at every school to which he applied. We simply cannot imagine going through this process without Lauren Jackson’s guidance, and we could not recommend her more highly.”
