We evaluate the strengths and weaknesses in your academic, extracurricular, and professional (if relevant) history.

First, we coach you on optimal academic, extracurricular and career (if relevant) choices that capitalize on your strengths and help compensate for your weaknesses, to prepare you to submit high-impact applications. Then, we create a detailed timeline for each application, for each element of the admissions process, to ensure you meet your due dates.

Based on our analysis of your strengths, goals, and personality, we can suggest a list of reach schools, realistic schools, and safety schools for you.*

We advise you on which schools to select for early decision and/or early action. Early application deadlines (October-November) allow for early notification of decision (often in December).

We help you manage the process of selecting, approaching, and guiding recommenders for recommendation letters, which are a required part of the application process.

We guide you in the process of selecting about which topics and stories you should write for each of your essay questions in each of your applications.

We thoroughly read and edit each of your essays to ensure elements such as proper grammar, appropriate organization, and sentence flow.

Before you submit the final version of your application, we'll carefully review each form to ensure there are no errors, grammatical or otherwise.

As many schools recommend or require interviews for admission, we will teach you effective interviewing skills, give you a mock interview, and provide you with feedback on your interview performance.

In the event that you are waitlisted, we can recommend successful strategies for getting admitted from the waitlist.



We are happy to customize our servicing plans based on your individual needs. Our servicing and payment options include:

For a set fee based on the number of schools to which you apply, we offer all of the above services - in unlimited amounts. That means that there is no limit to the number of essay brainstorming sessions, essay drafts, interview practice sessions, phone calls, questions you can ask, etc. throughout the process.

If you would prefer to work with us for just a portion of the application process, we offer each of the above services on an à la carte, hourly basis.

If you would like to strengthen your interviewing skills in preparation for admissions interviews, we offer an interview-only package that includes a mock interview, feedback on your interview skills, and recommendations for improving your performance. Our consultants are actual admissions interviewers for top universities, so they have much experience interviewing and assessing applicants and can thus provide you with very valuable and actionable feedback.

If you are a sophomore or junior in high school and want to understand your college options based on your academic and extracurricular achievements to date, we can analyze your prospects for admission and recommend areas on which to focus across the next 2-3 years, to maximize your chances of admission at a top school. We will create a strategic plan and timeline for you that outlines recommendations for high school classes, extracurricular activities, community service, internships, summer programs, standardized test preparation, and campus visit scheduling, and meet with you on a periodic basis to ensure progress.

If you are a prospective business school applicant, we can coach you on career choices, extracurricular involvement, and standardized test plans so that you are cultivating a candidacy that will maximize your chance of admission to top MBA programs.

If you did not receive admission to your target schools this year, we can thoroughly review and analyze your rejected applications to identify specific areas of weakness, and then recommend successful strategies for improving your chances of admission for the next year.




Your "dream schools," at which your chances of admission may be small, but not unrealistic.

Schools to which, based on your credentials, you have a very good chance of admission.

As admission is competitive and there is an element of subjectivity to the process, it's important to apply to schools that may not be your top choices but that you would attend if admitted.
