Guardian Program


The Guardianship Program is Concierge’s highest and most exclusive level of membership – one to which we devote our utmost care, time, and love. For a select number of students, we act as a guardian while they are attending school in the United States to ensure they have a support system close by. This means direct and constant contact throughout the school year with each student, his/her parents, advisors, teachers, and consultants. Students are encouraged to call us at any time – whether it is an emergency or just to say “hello.”

For Guardian students our relationship begins well before the start of school as we help students and parents plan and make decisions about academic issues, packing, clothing, and personal needs. There is no limit on the time we spend via phone or email ensuring each student is happy and secure.We offer a wide range of services that are available when they need them. In addition, we visit students regularly.

Most important, CSS is available to each Guardian and family in case of an emergency. A Concierge representative is just a phone call away 24 hours a day. We are in constant contact with all parties to ensure that any problem is resolved immediately and professionally. Of course, parents are notified first and are the primary decision makers.

“...when we signed up our son for the Guardian program we discovered there was a lot more that we gained.”

Boarding School Membership Program


The Boarding School Program offers four basic services most often used by boarding students.

  • We will plan and chaperone your student trips when the dorms are closed for long weekends.
  • Our drivers will greet your students at the airport, assist them with their baggage, and drive them to your school.
  • Unaccompanied minors will be accompanied at the airport upon arrival and departure.
  • We will aid your school in all disciplinary actions regarding a student suspension or expulsion.

We will organize a program designed to meet all of your school's needs on a case-by-case basis. We work directly with the school and the appropriate Dean or appointed faculty with scheduling of services. Our services help set your school apart from the rest.

One customized rate will enroll all your international students as CSS Members. When your students use our services the expenses incurred will be billed directly to their school account or as they have specified.

All the services offered at the Guardian level are also available for boarding school members.
