End-to-end senior year counseling — essays, college list, application strategy and positioning, and more.
As you approach Senior Year, there's only so much left that you can control in your college application. In my view, this is where the fun begins! I will do a complete inventory check with you and begin to strategize how best to prepare your college applications. We will meet weekly beginning the summer before your Senior Year. During the summer, we will work on your Common Application essay, formulate your college list, and discuss application strategy. In August, we begin working on supplemental essays, letters of recommendation, and standardized testing. Prior to submitting any application, I will go through each application question line-by-line with you so that we're all on the same page. My goal is to ease the stress of this process by being on-call to you every step of the way!

Expert transfer counseling with direct USC & UC admissions experience (I'm a former USC & Pomona College admissions officer and former UC application reader).
The transfer review process is quite different from the first year review process. When I worked at USC, I probably did over 200 Trojan Transfer Plan (TTP) meetings with prospective USC transfers. I'll apply my direct skillset into shaping your transfer application into a compelling one. I also have experience in the UC application process, as well as other private colleges (Northwestern, Cornell, Vanderbilt, NYU, and others). The transfer process is all about planning, so let's get started today!

Two full years of comprehensive end-to-end counseling starting Junior year through graduation.
Junior year is the time to focus on all aspects of your college application: academic profile, having impactful activities (in school, outside of school, and summer activities), SAT/ACT testing plan, building a college list, and developing your personalized college application strategy. At minimum, we'll begin to meet once a month, as our priorities will be to do everything we can to shore up your profile and make you as compelling as possible. This package includes all college counseling work through Grade 12 — a total of 2 years.

Three full years of comprehensive end-to-end counseling starting Sophomore year through graduation.
Sophomore year includes all of the elements of Freshman year, with an additional emphasis on refining and showcasing the extracurricular activity and academic profile. In addition, we will begin to work together to practice reflective writing. I've noticed that this is something students tend to struggle with come Senior Year as they're scrambling to write their essays. Students are so programmed to write a certain way for their English classes in high school that it produces an unintended consequence. The essay and short answer they write for college applications calls for depth, reflection, and character; we will work together to develop your reflective writing skills using writing exercises, sample essays, monthly journal entries, and reading assignments. This package includes all college counseling work through Grade 12 — a total of 3 years.

Four full years of comprehensive end-to-end counseling starting Freshman year through graduation.
I believe that the first two years of high school is an essential time for students to try (many) new things, engage with others who may be different from you, and to step outside your comfort zone. During these times, that is how you develop, mature, and gain new insights into yourself and your peers. Beginning freshman year, we will work together to create a college admissions plan that will set you up for success. We'll identify activities and interests and build upon them by making them meaningful and impactful. You'll learn to develop your skills, interests, and values along the way, as these will be essential when it comes time to working on the qualitative components (essay, short answer) of your college application. In addition, I will also help counsel, advise, and guide you throughout your high school journey. In the early high school years, I'm more of a counselor, covering all aspects of your social, emotional, and academic development. This package includes all college counseling work through Grade 12 — a total of 4 years.

Get startedShort-term packages
While I'm partial to the long term partnerships via my college counseling packages, I also want to be mindful of your time and provide flexibility. As such, I offer a range of 'a la carte' college counseling services to meet you where you're at. Short-term counseling does not operate as a Flat Rate, meaning there will be meeting/hourly limits. For unlimited meetings, please refer to my long-term college counseling packages.
Complete review, feedback, and suggested edits on one essay of your choice.
For students in need of essay feedback, I will do a complete review of one essay of your choice and provide comments, feedback, and suggested edits.
Two 1-hour sessions covering any aspect of your college application process.
For parents and students who want to meet one-on-one to discuss anything related to your college application process. Topics may include: advice on course selection, extracurricular activity planning, interview help, personalizing your application strategy, trends in college admissions, role of testing (ACT/SAT/AP/IB), Early Decision/Early Action strategy, and college list development. Please note: we will meet for 2 sessions of 1 hour each. These sessions will not cover application review or essay writing development.
Full review of one application before you hit 'submit'.
For students who are ready to submit their application, I will provide a comprehensive review of one application before you hit 'send'. Complete feedback will be given on all aspects of your application: demographic information, additional info, essay & short answers (revisions/edits will be provided), letters of recommendation, and extracurricular summary. By offering a fresh perspective, the goal is to pair my expertise and admissions strategy to help you create a more compelling and successful application.
8 sessions over 2 months · Common App + 1 supplemental essay.
8 hourly/meeting sessions (2 months) that will cover all aspects of the college application essay (Common App Personal Statement) and short answers. By the end of the bootcamp, you will complete your main Common Application essay (650 words) and 1 supplemental essay (~250 words) of your choice.
Comprehensive counseling on your UC and CSU applications: PIQs, activity summary, major selection, application strategy, and more!
Are you interested in attending a University of California (UC) school? Let's work together on perfecting all aspects of the UC application: the 4 PIQ short answers, activity summary, additional information, major choice, and application strategy. I'll also assist with all aspects of your California State University (CSU) applications as well! And just as a side note — all of my previous students who've applied have (thankfully!) received admissions to their first choice UC!
Mix and match any service!
To provide you with the most flexibility, we can mix/match any of my services! Want to work with me on only the USC and UC applications? Need help with your college essay plus a few hourly consultations? Let's plan our own time together and we'll come up with a fair price so I can meet your needs. Please note, this is only available for Grade 12 college counseling students.
Choosing the 'right' college counselor is an important first step in your application journey, and I want to make sure you feel confident with the value you're receiving. My pricing reflects the direct admissions experiences/knowledge I have, the on-call access to me 24/7, and the successful track record of my previous students. And while pricing is subject to change without notice, I do my absolute best to maintain a competitive, fair, and transparent rate.
