Margery was there when I needed her most. A bit less than a month before the early decision deadline — an already stressful time — the person who was originally supposed to be aiding me with the application process became unreachable. Amid my panic, in came Margery, taking me on as a client at the last minute and helping me finish and perfect my applications. By taking the time to learn about me, Margery helped me unearth more profound essay ideas and taught me how to make the most of the restricting word count in order to communicate my passions. I am still in awe of her dedication, professionalism, and grace. Thanks to Margery, I was accepted to all of my top schools— she is truly wonderful, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!

Working with Margie made the college process less stressful and helped ease my way into the final stretch of high school. I gained a new connection and we developed a strong bond that I know will follow me through my college years. With Margie’s assistance, not only was I able to get accepted into my top two schools but 10 out of the 11 schools that I applied to as well. I am so grateful to have worked with such an exceptional and patient individual!

Margery had been super-helpful throughout the entire application process. She provided me with the best guidance and suggestions when it came to every essay prompt and helped me take my writing to the next level. I am now in my top school/program and I could not have felt more confident with my application once I hit the submission button!

Margery Kashman, the College Essay Whiz, was an absolute lifesaver for me throughout the entire college process. CEW has a unique approach to tailor to the needs of each student throughout their entire high school career including the college pre-application and application process as evidenced by the magic worked regarding both myself and my sister (University of Michigan Class of 2018). Every aspect of applying to college was facilitated by CEW. I was given a clear, cogent and precise road-map to follow, which made the application process far less daunting. I was accepted at 13 out of 15 colleges that I applied to comprised of 5 safes, 5 targets, and 5 reaches. I truly feel my essays and application were put forward in the best possible light. CEW is endlessly patient, kindhearted and will get you to produce your finest work. I couldn't have done it without her.

I give the absolute highest recommendation possible to Margery Kashman, who provided comprehensive letter-perfect college application services through three separate occasions (college and graduate school for my daughter and most recently, college for my son). As a parent, I feel everything regarding applying to both undergraduate and graduate school was immensely facilitated because my children used the services of College Essay Whiz. Margery’s expertise in assisting where to apply, which colleges have the program your child is seeking, college essay writing and a wide breadth of knowledge of what individual schools are looking for is second to none. As the acceptances rolled in, in much thanks to Margery’s diligent help, I thought to myself how using College Essay Whiz was one of the best investments I could ever make with regard to my children’s academic career. My wife and I were astounded at the amount of pressure alleviated throughout the process for both our children and ourselves! Using the College Essay Whiz will be the best move you could ever make while your children are applying to college or graduate school.
