International College Counselors was born out of the frustration that friends and family of Mandee Heller Adler, the Founder and Partner, experienced while trying to help their children navigate the often-confusing college admissions process.
As a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard Business School, recipient of a fellowship from the Rotary International to study at ICADE, a premier business school in Madrid, Spain, and recipient of approximately $60,000 in scholarship aid, Adler was the go-to person for assistance with reviewing college and scholarship applications, essay and resume writing, and targeting the best colleges to attend.

Hello Mandee,
We are writing you today to tell you how much we LOVE Jillian Nataupsky!!! We first met Jillian on one of her virtual college webinars in the middle of the summer!!! We had been through an awful experience with a prior college consulting service with our oldest son two years prior. Jillian was confident, educated but most especially compassionate with our prior experience. She clicked immediately with us and most especially with our senior Ryan!!! She helped guide us through the college process making it a completely different experience then what we had been with prior. It

Andrea was a huge help in navigating the college admission process. We began working with her during my daughter’s sophomore year and continued through my daughter’s departure for college. Andrea helped my daughter narrow down the list of schools she was interested in and provided advice about school and extracurricular activities. During the application process, Andrea set reasonably deadlines for my daughter to make sure essays were finished in a timely and relatively stress-free manner. Ultimately my daughter picked and was accepted to a school perfect for her. I highly recommend Andrea

Andrea was the best to work with! She clearly communicated with my sisters and I about college deadlines and helped us start the process early so we wouldn't get too stressed. Andrea helped me easily navigate the Common App and was a great resource when I was stuck on what to write my personal statement about. Additionally, I always felt prepared for an interview thanks to Andrea's practice sessions.

Andrea helped me comfortably and successfully navigate the college process. I felt prepared and as least stressed out as possible. I cannot fathom having done this process without her. Due to the professionalism of ICC, I knew that I was putting the best representation of myself on paper. Andrea is also generous yet stern in the best way.

Andrea Graziano from ICC was so great to work with! Her calm demeanor was just what our triplets needed for their college application process. Having to change how the process worked due to Covid was seamless. She took the time needed for each student to help them make their own decisions. She was attentive and responded quickly when they had questions or needed guidance. Having no prior experience ourselves with the application process, we felt like we had someone helping our kids as well as us. We would recommend Andrea Graziano to anyone and felt it was the right fit for our girls and their

We had a great experience working with International College Counselors. We started when our son was a sophomore in high school and Barry guided him with course selection and making sure he was involved with leadership and extracurricular activities. When it came time to begin the application process, the assistance and guidance with writing his resume and filling out the application was invaluable. Barry and his team meticulously reviewed all essays with changes and suggestions every step of the way. I would HIGHLY recommend ICC to anyone considering using them - their resources, knowledge and
