that open doors
As a college essay consultant with more than ten years of experience, I work with students whose grades, test scores, accomplishments and activities make them strong candidates for Ivy Plus universities. I’ve coached over 600 students as they explore core values, craft compelling messages, and write essays that intrigue and impress college admissions officers — and get exceptional results.
Leveraging my background as a journalist for The Economist and The Wall Street Journal, and as the author of two books, I guide the development of ideas, review every draft of every essay, and offer editorial expertise. My personal, proven process allows me to provide college essay coaching that reduces students' stress, builds their confidence, and turns applying to college into a meaningful and even transformative experience.

of Ivy Plus
Acceptances
Students, parents, and I share the same goal: acceptances to top universities. Every year, dozens of College Essay Mentor students defy record-low acceptance rates and earn admission to Ivy League schools, Stanford, MIT, and other elite institutions.
Most of the credit goes to my students' academic excellence and extracurricular accomplishments. My part as a college essay coach is to understand what admissions officers are looking for and provide one-on-one guidance that helps students craft compelling essays and stand out from other outstanding applicants.

Each package includes the application components that have helped College Essay Mentor students get outstanding college admissions results for more than a decade.
