College Consulting Service

What touched us even more was that after working together for around five years, Ivy Talent’s team always did their best to help us get into our desired schools for both of our children. In the 2022 Fall applications, our daughter was admitted to Brown University through Early Decision, and our son was accepted into Fessenden. Ivy Talent is one of the few consulting firms that truly cares about both students and parents with a high sense of responsibility.
