What the institutions say about UKCA

UK College Admissions

"I admire their sincere drive to help students"

Christine A Kelly, College Counselor

Atlanta International School, GA
I've worked with Gary and Lydia for several years, and have found their knowledge, and expertise invaluable as I navigate the international university admission process from the USA.  I admire their sincere drive to help students find and enter the university of their choice and appreciate their consistent availability to provide that expertise in a friendly, easy to understand manner.  I'm very excited about this website!

"I cannot praise them enough"

Joanna C. Tudge, University Counselor

Washington International School, DC
I have had the pleasure of working with Gary and Lydia for over ten years and they have been a tremendous resource for myself and our students and families who are interested in applying to the UK.  Not only have they been amazing advocates for their own institutions, but they have a broad and detailed knowledge of universities and programmes across the UK and have frequently shared their network of contacts with me to help students find the perfect fit.  I cannot praise them enough.

"Their expertise has been invaluable to me"

Jamie M Rueger, College Counselor

Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, OH
I have not only had the opportunity to work with Gary and Lydia, but also have been able to meet them personally. They are very knowledgeable and helpful in guiding students, parents and counselors through the process of applying through UCAS. I knew next to nothing about directing students through this process and their expertise has been invaluable to me.

"It is a pleasure to work with both of them"

Letitia Peterson, Director of College Counselling

Holton-Arms School, MD
As a college counselor in the U.S., I often need some details about the UCAS process for my students who are applying to universities in the UK. Lydia and Gary are very well-informed and responsive if I have any questions or need direction to the appropriate resources. Their combined years of experience with applicants from the U.S. is important, since many families here are unfamiliar with UCAS.  On a personal level, it is a pleasure to work with both of them, and I highly recommend their services.

"We really appreciated the time and care they have taken to respond to inquiries"

Claire Shepro, College Counselor

Lycee Francais de Chicago, IL
Gary and Lydia have been a great resource for both me and my students. They are extremely knowledgeable not only about UK admissions, but about how to "translate" the process so it makes sense to American applicants! My students who have worked with them have really appreciated the time and care they have taken to respond to their inquiries.

"They bring to life the many dimensions of university life"

Sherrie Tasnady, Guidance Counselor

Saint Francis High School, Mountain View, CA
Both Gary and Lydia understand the questions that international students have and are able to balance their knowledge with the human touch. Their experience of hosting college counselors in the UK make them brilliant guides through the university search and application process and they have the unique ability to look beyond the buildings and programs of study to bring to life the many dimensions of university life.  This site will provide all you need to navigate the promising world of the UK educational landscape.

"Their guidance has helped me feel more confident about recommending UK universities"

Danny Reynolds, Associate Head for External Relations

Palmer Trinity School, FL
I have worked with Gary and Lydia for several years assisting our families in Miami to understand the application process to U.K. universities. Applying via UCAS is so different than applying via the Common Application, especially with the difference in writing the personal statement, but their guidance has alleviated the stressful application process for my students. Anything I was unsure about as a counselor, a quick email to Gary or Lydia would answer my questions. Their guidance has helped me feel more confident about recommending UK universities to my students. Our applications to the U.K. have increased each year.
UK College Admissions

"An informative, relatable, and an invaluable resource to students"

Tiffani Hooper - Co-Director of College Counseling

United Nations International School, NY
Gary and Lydia have years of experience explaining the U.K. university and application system to American students. They are informative, relatable, and an invaluable resource to students applying to universities in U.K. I value them as colleagues and respect their professional expertise.
