"Working with Hugh was incredibly helpful. I went into the essay process intimidated by the vast number of essays and worried that I wouldn’t have anything to write about. Hugh broke the process down so that writing countless essays seemed simple. He was also really helpful in the brainstorming process. With regards to the writing process, Hugh always offered constructive and insightful criticism that helped me write essays that I was really proud of. Most importantly all of his advice worked and I got into my first choice college!"

"I couldn’t ask for a better resource, and friend, through the stressful college process than Hugh McIntosh. Any moment I needed help tackling an application, Hugh was available in-person or FaceTime to lead me through every part of essay writing, from what that particular college was looking for to sentence construction to literally any problem I had. With Hugh’s help and guidance, I ended every editing session confident that my contribution would be among the best contributions in the top schools in the nation."
