College advising

College applications, with a clear plan.

Guidance from building your school list to hitting submit, including essay coaching that helps you tell your story in your own words.

What college advising includes

Support for every part of the application.

School list strategy

A balanced list of reach, target, and likely schools that fit your goals, interests, and budget.

Essay coaching

Brainstorm topics, outline, and revise your own drafts with feedback on clarity, structure, and voice.

Application planning

Deadlines, the activities list, recommendation requests, and early action or early decision choices, organized in one plan.

Your essay, your voice

We coach. You write.

Colleges expect every essay to be the applicant's own work, and so do we. We help you find your best story, shape a strong structure, and sharpen your drafts, but the words are always yours. That is what makes an essay sound like you, and it is what admissions officers want to read.
