Client Testimonials
Working with Claire at Clear Directions was extremely helpful. We were new to the college selection and application process and she helped us navigate the incredibly complex landscape in a calm and informative manner.
— Parent - Ramsey High School
As a mother of two very different twin girls the thought of figuring out how to navigate the college process seemed daunting. Claire's patient, calming personality, in addition to her vast knowledge and experience set our family on a great path toward focusing in on colleges that would be good for their individual needs and wants.

After using your services for a second time, as a parent, I am very pleased. You make the process run smoothly and not so overwhelming. Both my kids chose a major that limited the schools they could apply to. I believe you gave us a good indication of what these schools had to offer academically and socially.

Northern Highlands Regional High School
Clear Directions is an excellent college coach service. They provided great insights into the whole college search process from beginning to end for all three of my kids. They recognized their individual talents and unique goals and dreams, and worked with them toward selecting the right colleges and universities .

Working with Clear Directions, my stress level was greatly diminished. There are so many details and essays it was comforting to know there was a professional involved from start to finish with honest feedback and an objective eye.

Peg was extremely responsive and attentive, throughout the entire process start to finish. (And then after!) We couldn’t be any happier with the results we got from our college responses. We have already gotten on her list with our second child!

We have just signed up our 4th child to work with Peg Loonam and Clear Directions. Peg provided invaluable guidance to my recent college graduate and my college freshman, and is currently working with my high school junior. We love Clear Directions.

Bergen Catholic High School
You never made me feel forced to do anything I didn't want to and always respected my decisions. It was also incredibly helpful how we sat down and began to fill out the common app and coalition together because they can both get a little confusing and it was nice to have someone who knew what they were doing.
