College Admissions
Consulting Services
Being accepted into a top college comes down to how you market yourself as an applicant. There are plenty of students with perfect test scores and grades, so in order to be accepted by a top university what an applicant needs is to stand out from this enormous and highly qualified crowd. All of our admission consultants are Former College Admissions Officers and they work with our college applicants to craft Strategic Positioning Narratives and personal statements that best address their unique backgrounds, interests, and how they will contribute to the college to which they apply.
Our admission consultants advise on how to best position the college application so as to match it with what each college desires to see in its students. Most importantly, our admission consultants ensure that student essays, teacher recommendation letters, activity sheets, addendums, and interviews all support this positioning strategy.
