Many hold degrees from top-tier universities such as Harvard, UPenn, and Brown, and have extensive experience supporting both American and international students.
Multicultural and Multilingual Team

Personalized Planning, Not One-Size-Fits-All
Tailored Strategies that Empower Students
We don’t believe in creating pressure for the sake of competition. Instead, we help students uncover and build on their strengths and passions through highly customized planning that allows them to stand out authentically, without unnecessary stress.
Boutique Model with “2+N” Oversight
Each student benefits from a strategic plan reviewed by two senior consultants—typically our founder and head of U.S. admissions—followed by a dedicated team of specialists who provide targeted support across planning, writing, and profile development. With a 1:6 consultant-to-student ratio, we offer unmatched attention and responsiveness.
End-to-End Support with Long-Term Vision
Comprehensive, Stage-Based Guidance
From early academic planning in 9th or 10th grade through to final application submission, we offer step-by-step guidance aligned with each student’s evolving goals. Our support spans strategic roadmap design, soft skills building, academic enrichment, and admissions execution.
Focus on Long-Term Growth and Fit
We guide students not just toward college admission, but toward personal and academic growth that aligns with long-term career ambitions—helping them become the best version of themselves and choose schools that are the right fit.
