Parent's FAQs
Q. What makes your approach different from other admissions consultants?
I combine decades of experience inside universities with a calm, highly structured approach. I focus on helping students present themselves authentically while protecting families from unnecessary stress, confusion, and missteps.
Q. When should we start?
Most students start working with me at the end of their Sophomore year or the beginning of their Junior year. This timing has proven to be ideal for most students.
Q. What if we're not sure how much help our student needs
That's very common. During our intake conversation, we will discuss your student's situation and determine the best level of support.
Q. Do you guarantee admissions?
No consultant can ethically guarantee admission to any institution. I DO guarantee clarity, structure, personal growth, and the strongest application your student can produce.
Q. Is SAT or ACT preparation included?
SAT or ACT preparation tutoring is included in the Premier Concierge Package and can be added to other packages.
Q. How does college admissions consulting pricing work?
Some families work with me on an hourly basis for targeted guidance, while others choose structured packages for ongoing support. I share clear prices upfront, after a free initial consultation, during which we will decide the approach that fits your student’s timeline and goals—without pressure.
Q. Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Most packages can be paid in installments. I'm always happy to discuss options that feel comfortable and reasonable for your family.
Q. Where do consultation meetings and coaching take place?
All sessions take place remotely on Zoom - convenient, flexible, and effective; and Zoom allows you to choose from the best college application consultants in the world, rather than being restricted to a geographic area.
Q. How many students do you work with per year?
A limited number, to ensure deep, individualized mentorship.
