Our story
In a world where education is the gateway to opportunities, we noticed a glaring disparity: students from outside the United States faced unique challenges and complexities in navigating the U.S. college admissions process. The journey to understanding and mastering this process was fraught with obstacles for international students—language barriers, cultural differences, and a lack of accessible, specialized guidance. As a team of experienced educators, we saw these challenges not just as hurdles for international students but as a call to action. Our mission became clear: to democratize access to higher education in the United States for students around the globe.
Thus, our service was born from the idea that every student, regardless of their geographic or cultural background, deserves expert guidance and support to unlock their full potential. We dedicated ourselves to becoming more than just consultants; we aimed to be mentors, coaches, and allies in the journey of international students towards achieving their dreams. Our approach is holistic and personalized, recognizing that each student’s path to college is as unique as their individual stories. We pride ourselves on being not just advisors but advocates for our students, empowering them to navigate the admissions process with confidence and success. Our commitment remains unwavering: to provide comprehensive, compassionate, and culturally sensitive admissions coaching that levels the playing field for international students aspiring to study in the United States. This is our story, rooted in the belief that education knows no borders. It’s a story we’re honored to continue, one successful admission at a time.

Ella started working with us during the summer before 12th grade. We worked with Ella in applying to 8 schools, and so her package included meetings once a week. These meetings were focused on building out a university application plan, writing and editing the main application essay, and crafting and perfecting the supplemental essays. Ella was admitted and earned a scholarship to her top choice.
