Invest in Your Future

Now is the time to invest in achieving your educational goals and your future.  We serve as your dedicated partner, enabling you to navigate the admissions process with greater clarity and confidence...and better results.

There’s no set formula for gaining admissions to your target schools.  Nor is there a prescribed playbook for creating your path. 

  • Plan ahead while remaining open to possibilities

  • Make informed choices. Discern between conflicting advice, myth vs. opinion vs. fact

  • Act with intention

  • Effectively communicate your values, interests, goals and personal qualities

Selective schools take a holistic approach to evaluating applicants – this means that you’ll be evaluated on more than test scores, transcripts and resume.  In fact, admissions committees consider your activities, interests, goals, and other factors. They really do want to get to know the "real you."

Personalized Guidance and Coaching

You may be wondering:

  • What does it mean to “be authentic”?

  • How can you plan ahead, evaluate tradeoffs and manage uncertainty?  

  • What if you don’t know exactly what you want to learn and do and experience at school and in life?

  • When you receive conflicting advice, how do you discern myth from opinion from fact?

  • What differentiates a compelling vs. competitive applicant?

We partner with you at every step of your admissions journey, enabling you to answer these questions and to develop your strongest application.  Our methodology includes self-reflection exercises, brainstorming, research, lots of feedback, and a blend of academic, writing and life coaching. As your dedicated consultant, we wear multiple hats: coach, trusted advisor, advocate, sounding board, strategist.  

 More than ever, gaining a coherent and strategic yet flexible, personalized and (yes) enjoyable path is an investment in yourself and your future.  You will gain personalized, in-depth support throughout the process.​
