Common Questions
What is the process?
You will choose the package that is right for your student and we will get you scheduled to meet, either in person (if local), or virtual over Google Meet. If you prefer, I offer a free 30-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit. Once you fill out the contact form, you will receive pricing info and a secure link to schedule a session. If you decide to move forward, I will send you instructions on how to schedule and pay so we can begin sessions in the coming weeks. Students will fill out an intake survey and I will guide them through beginning their application or their essay.
How do we choose the right schools?
I will analyze your academic profile and career goals to help your student identify schools that offer the best fit for their unique strengths and aspirations. I guide students with a number of data-driven tools and my own admissions expertise.
What is the essay writing process?
I get to know your student through writing and intake exercises to evaluate their writing abilities and goals. We then schedule four sessions to brainstorm, revise, and polish your student's personal essay. My approach is student-led and centered. I do not write essays for students. I give constructive feedback, guide them with questions and discussion, teach them about the appropriate use of A.I. in essay writing (which is essentially none!), and help them through the process.
How do we manage deadlines?
We create a detailed timeline to ensure your application materials are polished and submitted precisely when required by each institution.
What are the costs involved?
My fees are based on the scope of your student's individual needs, with options and multiple packages tailored to fit your budget. Options range from $200-2500 depending on service level. I try to provide as much value to families as possible, both by targeting the right schools for your student, setting expectations, and helping them narrow their college applications down to the reach, target, and safety schools so that they don't need to apply to 19 or 20 colleges. At $70-75/application, that money can add up quickly.

Can you write my essay for me?
I absolutely 10,000% will not write an essay for a student. Not just because it violates multiple ethical principles, but because it is never in the best interest of a student. A student's voice is the key to showing authenticity in an application. Admissions officers always prefer honesty and authenticity over polish or professionalism. The essay is a place to showcase a student's personality and voice, not the place to impress AOs with writing prowess and perfection. What I can do is help with expert guidance, give honest feedback on structure, topic and tone, and provide organizational strategies to reveal the person behind the application.
