Ryan provided outstanding insight and assistance in the college-selection process for our twins, guiding us in understanding how to select the best colleges for each childs individual needs and desires. From preparation for college tours to application and essay writing, Ryan was with us every step of the way. His superior knowledge kept us one step ahead through every aspect of the process, removing all the stress and anxiety often associated with college planning and selection. Ryan even helped us understand the financial and educational advantages of being in the top tier of students at the selected university. Following his strategies greatly benefited both of my children. They selected two different universities, but both have received yearly merit scholarships, summer internships, paid summer grants, community business referrals, and countless special departmental opportunities. Ryans wisdom was invaluable. His knowledge is sound and has paid HUGE financial and academic dividends for both my children. With his assistance, my children each landed at exactly the right universities. They are now seniors (one graduating a semester early and the other graduating right on time-- both debt free!), and their incredible success is a testament to Ryans planning process! I highly recommend Ryans services.

For my husband and me, the college application process was overwhelming. When we met with Ryan, he was able to explain the process and help us navigate it with our son. The college process can be very daunting: from the college research and college visits, to essays and the application process.Ryan is also very knowledgeable of the different universities and was a wealth of information to us. He introduced our son to colleges he hadn’t thought of before.Ryan took the time to get to know our son, learn about his interests, and develop those interests and skills to match him with the right university. He helped our son with his high school class selection to help him be more competitive. Ryan was always available by phone or e-mail or office visit.Ryan was a pleasure to work with! We gladly refer him to anyone looking for a college consultant!

Ryan is very knowledge about the college admissions process, communicates very well, and is a very caring person. I recommend him without reservation. He helped our daughter find would turned out to be the perfect college for her and her college experience as outstanding.

My daughter has been working with Ryan for about 6 months. Ryan is professional, provides good advice and it is easy to work with. He has been invaluable in preparing her for college applications.

It was the best money I have spent toward my sons education. Could not have gotten through the process without Ryans help.

My husband and I have 3 daughters and we tried handling the college admission process with our first two daughters, on our own, with minimal success - and A LOT of frustration. With the 3rd daughter, we were older, and wiser in knowing our limitations, and that things change! I don’t remember how we came upon Ryan, but from our first meeting, I was RELIEVED! We started the process early and were able to use all of the tools available to us. Though our daughter chose a school that was a “safe” option for her freshman year, she was able to transfer into her “reach” school (NC STATE) directly into their engineering school and is “thriving” in that program. Not only is she happy, and successful, but our financial approach to the school has netted scholarships that we were not expecting. The time and money spent with Ryan Clark have returned at least 10 fold! It was a stress-relieving, results-oriented, worthwhile endeavor for our family.

Ryan Clark has helped my family immensely in my daughters college search. Prior to meeting Clark we were convinced that a private college was out of our financial reach and we were ready to settle for a state college. However, with Clarks help and guidance he showed us that a private college can be just as much or even cheaper than a public state college. Now my daughter had been admitted to one of her top school choices, a private, liberal arts university with a 30,000 renewable scholarship and is currently competing for a full-tuition scholarship. Without Clarks help in preparing my daughter for her college journey through finding the colleges best suited for her personally, academically, and financially, she would have never found her top choice and would likely still be struggling to find the best fit for her. Clark helped with preparing her admission essays as well as her Common App to showcase her individual personality and help her true self stand out. He has been an invaluable help to my family and especially my daughter.

Ryan has been incredibly helpful during my daughters college search. He lays out the process clearly and provides as much help as you need every step of the way. The college application world is so much different than it was when my wife and I went through it...if you have some questions, at least set up an initial consultation with Ryan - it will be worth your time.

I am a senior in high school, and I didnt know much about the college application process prior to working with Ryan. He helped my family and I with my applications, essays, scholarship opportunities, and more. Ryan and his team are very hard working and went above and beyond to meet everything I needed in a timely manner. With Ryan’s help, I was accepted to my dream school: Duke University! I would recommend him to anyone, at any time during their application process.

With the help of Ryan and his services, my son was accepted into the school that was his first choice! Ryan and his services, helps make the college planning process easier and clearer. He speaks directly to our children, is amazingly friendly and puts most of the college preparatory responsibilities where it belongs (on the student!). His website is totally user friendly and is packed full of useful information. I 100% recommend Ryan for any parent / student considering college admission!

Clark College Consulting and Ryan has assisted my son through the College application process as well as keeping him on task and focused on said process. Thank you Ryan for your dedication and your kindness with Joseph. I highly recommend Clark College Consulting to all high school juniors and seniors.

Mr.Ryan Clark was a huge benefit to have. I did not really have a clear understanding of the whole college process, and was able to have his services for the past two years. He helped me through the college process and helped me with my application process. If you need help with the college process, I 100% recommend using Clark College Consulting.

We started working with Clark College Consulting late my sons sophomore year. He is now a senior, accepted into most of the colleges he applied to (we are waiting to hear from one more).The guidance we have received has been amazing. It is all the little things I did not know to think about or to ask.Working with Ryan has been wonderful and I highly recommend it.

I absolutely loved all that Mr. Clark did for me! He made me feel super comfortable with the college application process and he made my Common Application essay the best it could be! He also prepped me for interviews and I received very helpful tips from him throughout this entire process.

Mr. Clark has been a tremendous help in walking me through the college application process. I have been accepted into all ten schools I applied to. He helps you from the beginning all the way through the appeal process. He also genuinely likes the students he works with and wants them to be sucessful in getting into college.

I have worked with Ryan for several years and he is very knowledgeable about all phases of the college process. I highly recommend attending one of Ryan’s talks as a way to begin planning for life after high-school!

Mr. Clark is super helpful and goes through all the nitty-grittys of a typical interview. He answered all of my questions, and helped me get more confident about my interview skills. I give my highest recommendation.

Ryan Clark is easy to speak with and really understands the process of college admissions, which can be overwhelming. Most importantly, he strives to find a good fit for the student: academically, financially, and socially. Clark College Consulting does a tremendous service.

I would heartily recommend Ryan Clark for any family with high school children who are planning to go to college. I cannot imagine navigating the complex process of applying to college without his guidance. Ryan guides you and your children through the process of visiting a variety of colleges, eventually narrowing the choices to campuses that are both an academic and social fit for the individual. As a result, my children were admitted to and received substantial merit aid for every college to which they applied. Thank you Ryan Clark!

Ryan has guided us through the college process with both of our boys. He simplified a complicated and sometimes overwhelming process and kept us on track. He kept both boys motivated and invested in every aspect of the process. Both boys received generous merit scholarships which allowed them to attend a top- choice private college for the cost of a state college. We cant thank Ryan enough for his help and delivering exactly what he promised! The Green Family

Ryan has been an outstanding charioteer for my High schooler and us as parents. It is because of Ryan’s experienced, meticulous and professional guidance that we were able to comfortably navigate through these otherwise stressful and uncharted territories of the college admissions process. His help on preparing the college list, plan for when to apply at each college, shaping our common app essay and activities was invaluable. We wouldn’t have done it without you, Ryan! Thank you for all your help.
