My goal isn’t just to get students accepted—it’s to help them grow through the process and set the stage for future success. The earlier, the better. Ideally, students should start in their junior year of high school to maximize time for essay brainstorming, strategy development, and application refinement.

Comprehensive full-service packages typically range from $5,000 to $50,000, while high-profile charge over $100,000! With me, you set the price.
