College Application Counseling
Our college application counseling package is our flagship product, perfect for students who are in their junior or senior years of high school. We schedule weekly 1:1 training sessions with students, complete with essay review sessions, mock interviews, and other special programs as college application season draws closer. Here is an in-depth look at our core offerings:
Strategic Application Roadmap
Before students dive into the applications themselves, we help students establish a roadmap of reach, target, and safety schools that they would like to apply to. We work hand-in-hand with students to develop a schedule to work on their applications and essays with special attention to deadlines and their own competitions and extracurriculars during junior and senior year.
Essay Coaching and Review
While most counseling programs simply offer essay revision, we work hand-in-hand with students to develop their storytelling voice and craft responses to the Common App and supplemental essays that best resonates with their academic "spike", personal values, and cherished experiences. Our rigorous strategies have helped every student deliver creative and impactful responses to essay prompts that together paint incredibly complete and awe-inspiring profile to admissions officers. We stress the importance of drafting, reviewing, editing essays in order to ensure the best chance of acceptance.
Application-Specific Coaching
In addition to working on students' essay responses, we also ensure all of the other sections of their applications are equally glowing to admissions officers. This includes the awards/extracurriculars section, supplemental portfolios or research papers, and meticulous preparation for college interviews. After working with our counselors throughout this process, students finish ahead of schedule with entire application beautifully crafted -- often accompanied by acceptances to some of their dream universities.
