“Extremely pleased with Jacqueline’s help for my first child, I came back to Jacqueline again for my second child. Presented with a different profile this time, Jacqueline impressed me again with her effective counseling. Jacqueline pointed out my son’s strengths and weaknesses, and suggested summer activities to strengthen his profile. I most appreciated her personalized approach. She took her time to know my son in order to brainstorm unique essay topics with him. She is strategic in essay planning and her team helps my son to finish powerful essays. She was very thorough in reviewing my son’s application drafts and make suggestions for improvement. She was readily reachable whenever we needed guidance, which took much of the stress out of the whole process. My son got into his first choice college early action, which spoke volumes for Jacqueline’s outstanding service!”

“High school has been fairly characterized as the highlight of adolescent exploration, but you were to ask me about the best thing that has happened to me in my high school years, I wouldn’t say late night hikes with friends or the thrill of discovering my intellectual passion. Certainly, those have all been a part of my wonderful high school experience, but even the most valuable of these individual experiences cannot compare with the immeasurable significance that Jacqueline Education Group has played in my life.
In the four years that I have worked with the JEG, its staff has provided me with services geared toward academic, intellectual, and personal development. Jacqueline is a phenomenal educator — her dedication to her students and expertise in the field is unparalleled, as is evident by the commensurate success they have achieved under her guidance. She is not just a counselor, but a dear friend and trusted mentor.
Similarly, the host of services that JEG provides is distinguished by their unmatched quality—essay readers are among the best and brightest graduates in the nation, and further marked by their charisma and passion. Likewise, teams of likeminded, intelligent educators craft detailed academic plans that prove invaluable over the course of a high school career.
JEG has been there with me every step of the way, and it is with the utmost gratitude and sincerity that the JEG has been instrumental in shaping the person I am today.”

“I had a great experience working with the Jacqueline Education Group. Jacqueline and her staff maintain a very professional approach, while also being very personable and knowledgeable. My SAT review tutor, Rachel, tailored the review to the specific areas I needed to improve upon. We moved quickly through the subjects that came more naturally to me, and focused most of our efforts on the more difficult sections. For my essay writing, Jacqueline and Alexa helped me to focus without being pushy. I had a very busy schedule and they went out of their way to accommodate me. With their help, I was successful in achieving my goal of attending an Ivy League University.”

“Thank you so much for all the help during the college application process. I wouldn’t have done it without you! ….. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
– [student accepted to Princeton University, class 2017]
“The assistance with college applications that I received with Jacqueline Education Group was extremely valuable. She helped me not only to write what the college admissions staff like to know about me, but also integrate the passions and interests I had within my writing. I appreciate the patience Jacqueline and Nana had whilst working with me; I remember that we had to work together to rework my Duke essay some 10-15 times before it was done. Jacqueline and her staff kept me focused on the work that I needed to be done, especially when some days I really got off task. With Jacqueline Education Group, I didn’t feel that I was completely lost and alone through the college admissions process. Thank You!”

“I have been accepted by Cornell 🙂
This could not have happened without your amazing and precise advice on everything from my common app to my essay-especially the Cornell supplement.
Thank you so, very much for all of your support, help and for pushing me to make my application the best it could possibly be!”

“I’ve suggested you to so many people; I think your advising and college essay editing made such a big difference and really boosted my chances. I honestly do not think I could have gotten accepted into UT Austin without you…. Many college counselors my friends worked with required them to send out all of their applications before winter break but I do not think that helped with their chances at all. Jacqueline and my editor, Alexa, worked with me on my essays for months constantly improving my essay not only grammatically but also conceptually. I will never forget the day Jacqueline stayed up until 11pm with me working on one of my essays. I had practice after school that day and could only work on my essay at night. She worked around my extracurricular schedule and I was ever so grateful for it. She also spent numerous hours meeting with me and my family before and after the application process helping me create my college list and finally deciding on my school! Jacqueline really cares about her students and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else besides her! I can’t emphasize how much she’s helped me get into my dream college… I was always ready for my rejection letter. But in the end, I was accepted and couldn’t believe it at all! She really made a significant impact on my life!”

“Dear Jacqueline,
I am pleased to inform you that [our son] has been accepted into Claremont McKenna College (CMC); his dream school. Since [he] was our first child to apply for college admission, we did not realize how difficult the process was for college application. Your guidance for us on the early decision application to CMC was crucial in increasing his chances of getting in. Your encouragement and support enabled us to finish the CMC application on time. Your detailed knowledge of the top colleges both public and private was invaluable to us. Your suggestions on [his] three essays were insightful and right on target. Your recommendation on submitting Art Supplements enhanced [his] application portfolio. With your help [our son]’s application is complete success which impressed admission officers at CMC.
After [he] was accepted on Dec 15th, our quest was over. No more forms to fill out, no more essays to write and no more application fee to pay. We were able to enjoy Christmas and New Year with no worry.
Thank you for all your help!”
