Please note that all services are strictly advisory. I will not contact the student’s current school, admissions offices, or any other party to discuss the student’s application. Students and parents need to understand the complexity of the college admissions process. The decision to accept, waitlist, or reject a student is made entirely by the college and is beyond my control. Students are expected to provide authentic and valid information on their applications. All essays and other written works must be done solely by the student to maintain application integrity.
