Where's the room for your child to shine?
Do all high-achieving students have the same chances?

In the college admissions game, it can feel like every high-achieving student has the same chance.
They have the same number of years to build their résumé...
They take similar classes, AP exams, and standardized tests...
They're given the same word limits for their essays...
So where's the room for your child to shine?
After going through hundreds of applications, I've found that the students who gain an edge are the ones who know how to position themselves and showcase their experiences well.
Sadly, schools don’t teach these skills.
This means most students—no matter how impressive they are—are showing who they are for the first time on their college application.
Not ideal.
From what I've seen, only a few applications have wowed me right away.
The rest needed a lot of changes to show the student's full potential.
If you want to give your child that extra edge, I’m still taking on a few more students for an Application Review.
If your 12th grader is wrapping up their materials, the Application Review can give you the peace of mind you need.
It’s like a practice round for the admissions process, with step-by-step help to make their application stand out.
Here's what's included:
A complete review of all application materials, from start to finish.
Strategic analysis of their essays, with careful proofreading and editing.
An actionable report with clear, step-by-step instructions and tips for those final days before the deadline.
Students have just two weeks before the November 1st Early Decision (ED) and Early Action (EA) deadline.
