2. Essay Review Service
Grade: 12
Fee: $4,500 for up to 3 colleges. $750 for each additional college.
- Conduct in-depth brainstorming sessions with the student to thoroughly review all essay prompts from the schools they’re applying to, aiming to maximize content integration and efficient reuse across applications.
- Provide multiple rounds of revisions for essays until students and I am all fully satisfied.
- I am highly experienced and responsible. I excel at uncovering unique highlights from students’ daily lives and activities, and provide clear, specific guidance for essay revisions so students always know what to do next without feeling lost.
3. Deferral and Waitlist Strategy Support
Grade: 12
Fee: $2,000
When a student receives a Deferral or is placed on a Waitlist, I will:
- Analyze weaknesses and areas for improvement in the current application.
- Provide targeted suggestions for supplemental materials (e.g., update letters, additional recommendation letters, etc.).
- Guide the student in building appropriate and strategic communication with admissions officers, increasing the chances of being admitted from the waitlist or from deferral list.
4. Comprehensive Program
Grades: 6–12
This program is fully customized based on the student’s needs.
I do not set a fixed frequency for communication with students; it is entirely arranged based on each student's individual needs. Some students prefer a fixed weekly call, while others schedule meetings as needed. When academic progress and extracurricular activities are going smoothly, we may go a month without contact. However, during critical decision-making periods—such as course selection or choosing between activities—more frequent, even daily, communication may be necessary.
Fees:
- $3,000 per academic year (Grade 6-8). Refer to Grade 6-8 for service details.
- $6,000 per academic year (Grade 9-11). Refer to Grade 9-11 for service details.
- $15,000 (Grade 12) including college applications. Refer to Grade 12 + College Application for service details.
