TESTIMONIALS
Reviews left by supported students and their parents over the years
We felt a bit lost in the jungle of options available—especially since our daughter was determined to study abroad. Marie helped us make the right choices. Thanks to her listening skills, insight, and understanding of our underlying needs, she also introduced us to schools in France that matched what we were looking for.
We’re leaving with a very clear action plan, a timeline with all the key dates, a shared drive with all the relevant links, and additional resources to maximize our chances of being accepted.
It was excellent—comprehensive, well-structured, clear, and concise. Marie is incredibly helpful and attentive. Everything we needed was included, both in the materials and in the shared drive.
I feel relieved and reassured. I know how to take action now. It’s incredibly valuable.
Her availability and responsiveness also allowed our daughter to communicate directly with her and move forward quickly in finalizing her applications. Thanks to Marie, we experienced this important milestone with much greater peace of mind. We are very grateful and highly recommend her.
We initially thought Victor would follow his brother’s path and apply to universities in the U.S., as his brother did five years ago. However, we were struggling with how to select and choose the right schools—it was a real headache.
After a casual and friendly conversation with Marie-Cécile on the subject, she offered her services, which we accepted without hesitation—what a great opportunity that turned out to be. Her selection was highly relevant and perfectly tailored, with a strong focus on international options while also including Europe and France.
Her supportive approach and the conversations she had with Victor helped him choose his academic specializations for his final years of high school. Marie-Cécile’s availability via WhatsApp has brought both Victor and us great peace of mind. Everything is fully under control.
Well done, Marie-Cécile—her efficiency and insight truly stand out. We strongly recommend having an initial consultation with her as early as 10th grade; it brings reassurance, a positive family dynamic, and a supportive environment.
We sought Marie-Cécile’s help to support our daughter Julia, who was in Year 12 at a British school in Dubai, in selecting the universities she would apply to in France, Europe, the UK, and Canada. She then guided her through the preparation of each application. Thanks to Marie-Cécile’s expertise, our daughter was able to complete every step on time—an essential factor when applying to multiple countries. She received several excellent offers and will be moving to either London or Montreal at the start of the next academic year.
Naturally, we turned to Marie-Cécile again to help our other daughter, Solène, choose her IB subjects before entering Year 12. The discussions and questionnaires Marie-Cécile provided enabled her to make the right choices. We also appreciated the final debrief, which clearly outlined the thought process and conclusions.
I have already recommended Marie-Cécile’s services to several families in my network. Her support, kindness, availability, and expertise make her an invaluable partner in navigating these important stages of academic guidance, both in France and internationally.
This experience was very positive for Inès—she is now more confident and has been able to overcome her stress.
From my perspective, I truly appreciate Marie’s methodology, punctuality, and kindness, which made the experience all the more valuable.
*Since then, Aloys has been accepted to Sciences Po Paris, which he will join in September.
This is the second time we have worked with MC2Studies, following a first successful experience with our eldest, who was accepted into all of her target schools. Marie’s approach is extremely well structured and provides a welcome synthesis in what can feel like an ocean of information about the many post-secondary education pathways. Her delivery is clear and concise, always fostering a spirit of dialogue with the student candidate.
Marie also has an exceptionally deep knowledge of leading institutions worldwide, along with extensive insight into key details, whether regarding admission processes or the cultural and academic specificities of each school or university. Finally, on a human level, it is a true pleasure to work with Marie, whose genuine kindness and support help reassure both students and parents throughout what can be an anxiety-inducing process.
