We then work with you to execute these goals to get you into your dream college.

Undergraduate and Transfer Students

Preparing for Graduate and Transfer applications is much more intensive than undergraduate applications. Students must show higher-level evidence that supports their intended major such as prerequisite courses and targeted extracurriculars. We meet with you to design a high-level application, providing guidance on internships, research, work placement, letters of recommendations, summer programs, and more.
