About Me & My College Journey
I'm a 19 year old freshman at Cornell University majoring in Information Science. Beyond academics, I love songwriting, golf, and The Sopranos.
My application process was painful. Rejected from my Early Decision school, I quickly learned I was in it for the long haul. I wasn't confident in myself or my own interests - I tried framing myself in ways that I thought would please admission officers. I wasn't authentic, and that showed.
It wasn't until I started taking risks in my applications that I started seeing success. I applied to niche departments, I wrote weird, quirky essays. I was authentic. And it worked.
This is what I plan to do with all of my clients - find how to package their authentic selves, in ways that make them stand out without being seen as inappropriate or unserious.
What I Will Do for You
My consulting process is divided into 3 main phases, aiming to holistically prepare each applicant for their admissions journey.
Where To Apply
Every application process starts with finding what schools you'll like. I'm not a believer in having one singular "dream school", but rather a broad net of 14 to 20 schools that check your boxes academically, socially, and geographically.
Academic & Extracurricular Strategy
Now that we've decided on where you're going to apply, it's time to make sure you're a competitive applicant. We'll strategize target GPA and SAT/ACT scores, but also for extracurricular opportunities that will make you stand out.
Application Assistance
Finally, we'll plan out how you'll actually apply to your selected colleges. This includes a full timeline as to when each college's application should be complete, as well as specific strategies regarding your major of choice and essay topics.
Pricing
My 3 main services (listed above) are packaged into a one-time fee, with additional services being an extra charge.
Initial Package
This consists of 3 zoom calls - one tackling where to apply, another discussing academic & extracurricular strategy, and a third to plan out the actual application process. I'll also always be avaible via text for any quick questions. This is all included for $2000.
Additional Services
This includes any additional calls - typically for essay editing or any discussions around changing our strategy (adding another school to our list, trying to get off of a waitlist, etc). This costs $150 per call.
