Hear It From Our Clients

  • Thank goodness we found GuideU

    “GuideU was wonderful to work with. We'd been working with a very basic counselor for the last few months and had put together all of the Essays and Activity Lists for the UC Application. We hired GuideU to put on their application reader/admissions hat to review our app. Thank goodness we found GuideU. They had so many great ideas, fantastic feedback about our essay and how to present our information. Our original app was pretty good but with GuideU’s feedback I think we can make it great. I would recommend them to anyone who needs this type of feedback.”

  • unparalleled

    “From the personalised support I received from my counsellor A.K.A Yoda to the tips provided to me by the entire team. The support system I was provided since the first day I stepped into their office is unparalleled. They guided me in each of my decisions without making them for me and I am eternally grateful for the continuous help they have provided me.”

  • Wonderful!

    “I must say that it has been wonderful to have been able to work with GuideU.”

  • Super Amazing

    “Thanks also for all the help on all of the applications. You've been super amazing for helping me apply and also make a decision in regard to them. And although I'm not going to the US, I'm glad I went through the process of applying so I don't have the feeling that I didn't at least try or explore this area.”

  • Couldn't have ever done it without you!

    “Thank you so much for everything you've done for me over the last couple of months. I couldn't have ever done it without you!”
