By JUST purely starting YOUNGER and NOTHING ELSE, this already gives your child AT LEAST a 5x advantage over other students when they fill out the SAME application in the 12th grade!
And in our 11+ years of doing this, we STILL haven’t heard a parent, out of the hundreds of parents we’ve worked with, say “I wish I started later.” Every parent by the time 12th grade comes around says, “I really wish I started earlier.”

Excellence
is never an accident
We Focus on the Needs of Students Looking to Attend Top Colleges
We understand that there are few resources available for parents of 6th – 12th graders who are looking to get into the best universities possible – especially for children who are high-academic achieving or those whose true strengths are not found on their report cards. The reason is because most college consulting programs are designed for the general public and with mass appeal in mind.
However, both these students and situations require a very specific strategy and solution to ensure they are accepted into the universities they worked hard for and deserve.
We've specialized in working with 2 types of cases
For 11+ Years
Case 1: High Academic Achievers
Attributes
-
A's in their Honors and AP classes
-
Top SAT/ACT scores
-
Science Bowl, Math Olympiad, Spelling Bee
-
Plays piano, violin, clarinet, etc.
-
Active in clubs, sports, etc.
Problem
-
Top GPAs/SATs ≠ Accepted to Ivy League Universities
-
Their strong academics tell universities, "I can handle the competition, rigor, and course load of school"
-
But they don't give universities a reason to accept them over the thousands of other students with excellent grades and test scores
Get into Ivy League / Top 25 University
Case 2: GPA / SAT Doesn't Highlight True Potential
Attributes
-
Mostly A's and B's
-
Also taking Honors and AP classes
-
SAT/ACT scores are good, but not great
-
Generally study/work hard for their grades and are motivated to get into a good college
Problem
-
GPA/SAT does not highlight true potential
-
They have other strengths that cannot be found in their GPAs/SAT scores
-
They are smart & motivated, but need a way to show universities they can be successful beyond GPA/SAT
Get into a 1 or 2 - Tier Better University
Our philosophy is that:
We would rather be world-class experts in these cases, rather than be mass market and templated. Our value to families is having knowledge (not found anywhere else due to the 100,000+ hours we have collectively dedicated to these cases) of the most current and effective strategies of what universities are looking for in these students.
