METHOD

Honed over years of research and practice, our proprietary approach helps students and families navigate the difficult process that is US university admissions.

​

• Future Exploration

Universities care about what you want to do, and how they can help you achieve your goals. Using personality assessments and career interest inventories, our consultants help students define academic, career, and life objectives and identify universities that match those aims.

• Hurdle Jumping

All universities demand that students demonstrate academic competence, and every level of academic achievement requires students to overcome challenges. Our consultants help students maximize their potential and keep their options open by lining up appropriate academic and non-academic support resources.

• Extra-Curricular Activities

Universities use extracurricular activities as indicators of students’ passion, initiative, and commitment. By working with students to identify those passions, our consultants help students select and excel in activities that fit their interests.

• Story Crafting

With limited time for each applicant, university admissions officers look for application packages that tell coherent and compelling stories. Using their knowledge of different universities’ needs and their understanding of their individual students’ profile, our consultants help students tie together their academic and personal stories in ways that fit, both academically and culturally, the universities to which students are applying.

• The Pitch

Ultimately, applicants need a strategy to sell their story of academic and personal achievement to university admission officers. Our consultants help students craft coherent application packages that best showcase their individual stories in the context of the needs of specific universities.
