With a proven methodology to ensure your target schools are right for who your child is. That’s our foundation. Then we focus on identifying your child’s core strengths. Finally we create great (and reusable) content for your applications. That means more acceptance letters
Find out why we are different
Graduating from an elite college doesn’t give a consultant special knowledge of admissions; it takes professional training, expertise and experience to help students gain admittance to their top college choices. We have that, with approximately a collective half century of teaching students and helping them gain admittance to their top colleges.
But knowledge isn’t enough. It takes a special rapport and understanding of the teenage mindset to help students present their best selves to admissions committees. We love working with teens, and it shows … with most of our students gaining access to their top choices!
