Details are not small things. They’re everything.

This is why we help with every part of the application process.

AI Literacy Program

With a software engineer on our founding team, we embrace new technology, like ChatGPT. In this program, we teach you how to balance AI and your own voice in your college applications. Using insights from the 2025-26 admissions cycle, we will guide you through a three-step process for using AI on your college essays. We will also show you how to use it for other parts of your application and facilitate open discussions with parents. We believe in the responsible use of AI. Your writing and perspective will always be in the driver’s seat. This technology will just make it easier. Apply to more colleges, submit strong essays, and prepare for the AI driven workplace. Read our founder’s San Francisco Chronicle op-ed for why a hybrid model (AI + counselor) helps you create a stronger application. This program is available as a stand-alone package or an add-on.

SAT Preparation

We offer two study sprint options:

#1: Improving foundational skills. This is what students often miss - it’s not about repeating questions, it’s first about revisiting the topics. We have specific books, articles, and methods to improve reading comprehension and expand your vocabulary. For math, we will teach you the concepts across all the different sections (algebra, advanced math, problem-solving, and data analysis).

#2: This is where we narrow down your strategies. We don’t give every student the same strategy - we adjust based on what works. In this sprint, we will focus on repetition and getting in as many practice questions as possible so you feel comfortable come test day.

We want to meet you where you are at. You can choose sprint 1, 2, or both.

College App Support

Think of us as the vessel carrying your narrative - guiding, shaping, and amplifying it without ever diluting it. If you are struggling with picking a topic or writing creatively, we have a variety of tools to help: quick-write prompts, playlists, mood boards, and more.

We can assist with any component of your application, as hands on or off as you need: personal statement and supplementals, college tours, reaching out to admissions officers, developing extracurriculars, interview prep, and writing brag sheets for letters of recommendation. We can also fly to you for meetings and college tours if preferred.

This package starts as early as eighth grade.

Private School Applications

We guide each student with care and precision, supporting them in areas including, but not limited to, SSAT/ISEE preparation, coordinating meetings with athletic coaches, interview coaching, essay development, shaping extracurriculars, and crafting the overall candidate profile. For families who prefer in-person collaboration, we can travel to New York City, Connecticut, and Massachusetts to attend meetings and tours. We are also certified to proctor the SSAT as a flexible exam option.

Our approach creates ripples that extend beyond admissions, helping you build life skills and study habits that will carry you through college.
