LOVE LOVE LOVE this book.... any family going thru the college process (parent and student) could benefit from this book. Jill and her daughter Amanda, have created an incredible resource book. Jill's suggestions and insight in combination with Amanda's perspective as a teenager makes what could be a very stressful period of time actually more enjoyable. I would 100% recommend every family with teenagers in high school to have a copy of this book.

So grateful for this book! Love the Journey to College was instrumental in getting my daughter into the college of her dreams. She is so happy at the college that she chose and we would not have found this institution without this guide. We so much enjoyed the journey to college because of the helpful advice from the author and her daughter. I can't wait to use the book again when my son is ready to look at colleges and until then I am sending it to all of my friends who have children about to embark on their own college journeys. This book is a must-read for both parens and students!

This book is exactly what I needed. I was feeling pretty overwhelmed with the college process and found this book to be extremely informative, easy to read, and filled with useful tips for both parents and students. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the perspective of both a counselor and student, both who present clear facts and useful information to make the journey toward college more manageable and fun! My high schooler found it enjoyable and easy to read as well. I have come across many books on the college process and found this one to be the most useful by far.

This book has been by far the most helpful of all the college guides I have read. It is full of insider tips and the format is easy to follow. When I started by college search with my twins, the process seemed overwhelming. But since reading this book, we are so much more organized and focused. This is not your typical cookie cutter advice, but rather a book that helps make the search personal to each student. We also really enjoyed the unique mother daughter perspectives. LOVE this book and highly recommend to anyone no matter what stage you are at in the college search process.

The best college guide we read. Easy to read from both parent and student perspectives. This book was our main tool during the college search process. Amazing hints and tips on college visits, applications and the difficult world of college finance. We loved the mother/daughter format which helped the whole family.

As a junior in high school who is beginning the college search process, I highly recommend this book. Since freshman year of high school when everyone started talking about college, I've been stressed about the process. My mom bought this book for me, and it made me feel so much more confident. The book lays out the application process in detail and in language that is easy to read and understand. It is clear that Jill has so much experience and knowledge on the topic, and it was great to get Amanda's perspective as a student who had just gone through it. Both Jill and Amanda provide great advice on how to visit colleges, create your college list, and make your applications stand out. I highly recommend this book!

This book has become of a BIBLE in our house. We bought it last year, when our son (then starting Junior year) was talking more about college. With all the decisions and steps along the way, we’ve used Love the Journey to get the quick insights that have helped us be supportive but not overbearing. Part 2 has been an amazing resource for our son, in identifying schools, planning some visits, and thinking early about ways to make his application stand out to colleges. Part 3 has some great tips for maintaining sanity (his and ours) and putting the whole process in perspective. THANK YOU to both authors for your guidance and wisdom.
