To Get Into an Elite College…
It isn't enough to be personal, you need to be practical!
This is the key to being accepted into the most selective colleges. Elite institutions routinely consider more valedictorians, students with perfect test scores and grades, published research, and winners of international competitions than there are available seats in their incoming classes. This leads admissions officers to decide which overqualified candidates will ultimately bring the most tangible value to their university and its many social and academic communities. They want students who have proven in the past that they can contribute to the vibrancy of their campus and possess the current attitude to fully engage in all of the opportunities present on campus.
Our consultants will ensure that your essays and extracurricular demonstrate to admission officers how your presence on their campus will elevate the social and academic experience there for every other student. We’ll have your teachers and guidance counselors singing your praises in their recommendation letters, and help you communicate how your niche will contribute to the intellectual diversity of the entire incoming class.
What we will do for you:
Find an academic niche for you to pursue.
Having your eyes on a specific academic goal will maximize your chances of being admitted to your dream school.
Help you craft a personal statement.
A statement that speaks powerfully for yourself explicitly shows admissions officers the value you will bring to their campuses.
Help you write supplemental essays.
When themes naturally flow from your personal essay and stated extracurriculars, you become more memorable.
Assist you in selecting extracurriculars.
Extracurriculars demonstrate your potential to make a positive, tangible contribution to campus communities.
Help you plan out high school and community college classes.
Part of the necessary prerequisites for conducting research is taking advantage of opportunities to challenge yourself academically.
Help you write essays for extracurricular programs.
Programs you apply for will require their own set of essays and statements that will aid your application journey.

What our previous clients say about us
Accepted to Johns Hopkins University
“ I highly recommend Daniel, both as a consultant and a mentor. I’ve grown as a person using the skills he taught me. I have no doubt that he lives up to the core of his business model: ‘I don’t just want to help my clients get into college, I also want to equip them with the tools that will help them get the most out of life.’ ”
Accepted to Columbia University
“ Daniel is an amazing consultant and person, and even if I was able to do it all over again with the knowledge I've gained from him, I would still work with him to make my application better. ”

“ He gave really great feedback on my essay, and as a second quartile student with rather mediocre extracurriculars (especially for my school's standards) I was fully accepted into UT Austin. I don't really know how... but I'm sure my essay had to have played a pretty big part. ”
Pedro R.
“ I highly recommend scheduling a session with Dr. Daniel if you want your application to be perfect. His feedback is invaluable, and he truly cares about helping students succeed. Thank you so much for your help, Dr. Daniel! ”
