Since that time, we have personally helped thousands of young people – from nearly every state in the U.S. and multiple countries around the world – gain admission to one of their top-choice colleges with huge, five-figure institutional grants and scholarships that make going there affordable. YCC students consistently gain admission to their top schools AND enjoy $33,000 per year on average in scholarships and grants.

The Your College Concierge Difference
At Your College Concierge, we treat college planning as a science, as much as an art. We are a carefully cultivated team of higher education experts who have spent nearly two decades researching, testing, tweaking and improving our college planning process. The results speak for themself (see a sampling of our students’ stories), and have made us a sought after partner among some of the nation’s best private high schools and nonprofits alike.
I know that right now the whole college process may seem daunting and fraught with challenges, but when you work with us, we promise it won’t be.

Now that the college decision has been made (WHEW!), we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude! We are so thankful that we had your expertise to guide us through the college admission process. You have been such a comfort to have in our corner! You truly made the whole process so much easier. Marcus is beyond excited to go to Fordham in NYC, and Gabe and I are so relieved that we don't have to spend our retirement funds to send him there!!! A total win! We will continue to highly recommend you to our friends!
We wanted to thank you so much for all the help you gave us throughout the college financial planning process. Your expertise and knowledge helped us with the challenges we encountered and we are so happy with the outcome. You helped us understand the process and helped us save thousands of dollars. Our daughter is now able to attend her dream school.
We are so grateful to Peter for his excellent guidance during this college application process. From the beginning when he helped us work with our son to select the colleges he wanted to apply to, to navigating the early decision questions, to ultimately drafting the actual essays and applications, Peter was always available and incredibly knowledgeable. But perhaps more importantly to us, Peter had a remarkable rapport with our son. He got to know my son, appreciated him for who he is, and ultimately helped him to craft an application that truly captured his personality – which in the end I feel made all the difference.
I hope you have been doing well. I’m delighted to share with you that I committed to Northeastern University as a combined Computer Science and Physics major! I couldn't thank you enough for your meaningful help and advice. I’m really thankful for my college application experience not only because it was well managed, but also that I learned how to write a compelling and truly unique essay. The advice you gave me for writing essays has been applied far beyond just college apps; it helped me succeed in AP Lang and sharpen my edge in communication. Having you as my college advisors was such a great experience. It was a pleasure to work with you and to learn from you.
I just want to thank you for making it possible to have the time for us today. In behalf of Sam, and Jay we appreciate your wise advises, and great recommendations. We all left your office with some hopes and enthusiasms regarding the adjustment our son is about to take. We really appreciate you, as a wonderful friend and a great adviser. God bless you, and your family. Thank you again.
My entire college selection and application process wouldn’t have been as successful without Peter’s help; I cannot thank him enough for all the advice. His vast experience, constant attention, and caring for my success exceeded my expectations. I would not have gotten nearly this far without Peter’s help. He helped me since the beginning and now, thanks to him, I am enrolled in Babson - one of my top choices - and was awarded one of the highest ranking scholarships!! I really cannot be happier with the results of this process. The countless meetings with Peter, stressful months, and hard work really paid off! I was extremely fortunate to have his help throughout the entire process!
