Want to Impress Colleges? Start Here.

Today’s new video, a sneak peek into Reena's coaching session with one of our families, is packed with practical advice and real conversation that’s perfect for students and families mapping out their college journey.

She covers:

  • Why demonstrated interest matters, and how to show it on your summer college visits

  • What to prioritize if you're not a STEM student

  • How to use your connections strategically to build your resume (hint: it's about showing initiative)

  • What the top 4 tiers of college admissions actually are

  • And how to start building a standout story, starting now

Plus, they talk SAT prep (without the stress), writing strengths, and how to build a summer that’s both productive and fun.

P.S. - Have a high-performing high schooler w/ a 3.7 GPA or higher? We'll help get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges...and if we don't get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges, you don't pay us a penny.  Seriously.  College admissions isn't rocket science...but it is a science.  And we've cracked the code...year, after year, after year.  You can learn more about our world renowned all-inclusive, start-to-finish college coaching here and to see if your family qualifies for an introductory call.

P.P.S - Our most common question is "When should we start?!"  The answer is, if you truly care about giving your high schooler the best chance of college planning success, you should start NOW. 9th grade is not too early to start! 10th grade is certainly not too early to start! And 11th grade is far, far too late! (supporting data here to show just how much of an advantage you give your child by starting the process early).
