FAQ
How can you level up?
Reach out to our team, and discover what services can support your authentic narrative in your applications.
What are the pricing plans?
Personal, strategic counseling takes time. Most packages include basic services (a list, essay), a country (i.e., USA, UK, Canada, Ireland) and the first tranche of five schools. Add ons are available.
What is a “selective school”?
While selectivity does not equate to quality, selective schools typically accept fewer than 50% of those who apply. Our clients tend to target schools accepting fewer than 25%, or other highly ranked (QS top 100) universities, including Ivy Plus and Oxbridge.
What is the timeline?
Ideally, the real work begins the year prior to graduation (i.e. junior year). The process will take a number of months, and it is best to avoid last minute stress.
Can we meet in person?
We typically meet via Zoom or other online platforms. In person meetings can be arranged with sufficient notice and subject to travel.
Is there a guarantee?
No. We cannot guarantee a particular admissions result. What we will do is work on a strategy that has the potential to dramatically improve results. Our core philosophy holds the goal is not to “get in” but to succeed once enrolled and beyond.

BE AUTHENTIC
We Can Show You How
We have spent decades in the storytelling business, in admissions, and in the classroom. We have proprietary methods to help you communicate how amazing and unique you are, authentically, and how the chapters of your story fit together. This helps express your match and fit to institutions effectively.
Individual
Your life is unique, so your program must be customized. Other counselors may have pre-fabricated or group models.
Timely
We constantly visit the top institutions in the world, speaking with admissions officers and recruiting reps to stay abreast of changes and listen to their messaging.
Analytics and Reporting
We use cutting edge data, and onboard students to the CounselMore platform for ease of communication.
Artificial Intelligence
AI can be an effective tool, but it is not a replacement for the “unique you” in an effective application.
Building a narrative takes time
Know thyself… Those words were transcribed on the entry to ancient Delphi. Even though we are all on a personal journey, most of us are not trained in communicating our own story in a compelling fashion. Our system comes from the greatest storytellers in the world, and works to extract and translate authentic narratives. The techniques help build personal statements as well as prepare clients for future needs (such as job interviews!).
I’m grateful for the professional and effective coaching and support I received, helping me achieve my goals.

Our most popular plan
How is billing handled?
To formalize your engagement, we request a 50% initial payment, followed by monthly payments continuing through November of senior year. No work can begin without an initial payment.
Can we add to a plan?
Certainly! You can upgrade, of course, and some services beyond the contracted package are available on an a la carte basis, but only as package add ons.
What if I want to change or cancel?
We offer a downgrades or (should you choose to cancel,) a full refund within ten business days, minus an administrative fee and a charge for any Personal Support hours utilized.
Is everything confidential?
We take privacy seriously, and conform to the highest standards of data protection (including the GRPA and FERPA). We also expect clients to exercise discretion, especially with proprietary materials subject to copyright.
What kind of discounts are offered?
We have worked with top support vendors in various areas, including standardized test prep, tutoring, research projects, and more. We are constantly looking for the best discounts to pass on to clients, with savings not available direct from the providers!
Will you work with my school counselor?
Absolutely! In fact, it is often best for us to coordinate with your school, as they are providing so much necessary support in the process. Let’s discuss how this works best for you.
