Jane Shropshire
Jane S. Shropshire has been an educational consultant since 1996.
Years of experience as an admission officer at three highly selective universities, weighing in on thousands of admission decisions, informed her approach to private practice. In those years and in private practice since, she’s visited hundreds of school and college campuses in the U.S. and abroad.
And now? Jane stays abreast of changes in both secondary and post-secondary landscapes and is part of a highly active professional network. All of this enables her to share timely information with clients about developments at colleges and boarding schools, including their admission trends and policies.
