Application Strategy
The Challenge Students Face
Applying to Ivy League schools without a clear strategy is like navigating without a map. Many students make costly mistakes in school selection, timing, and positioning that could have been avoided with expert guidance.
Choosing schools based on rankings rather than fit and realistic chances
Missing critical deadlines for early decision, testing, and financial aid
Failing to create a cohesive narrative across all application components
Underestimating the importance of demonstrated interest and strategic timing

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you determine the right schools for me?
We analyze your academic profile, interests, career goals, campus preferences, geographic considerations, and financial needs. We then match these against detailed knowledge of each school’s culture, strengths, and typical admitted student profiles.
Should I apply Early Decision?
ED can significantly boost admission chances at some schools, but it’s binding. We help you weigh factors like financial aid needs, certainty about your first choice, and how ED fits into your overall strategy.
How many schools should I apply to?
Most students apply to 10-15 schools. We help you build a balanced list with appropriate reach, match, and safety schools while ensuring you can give each application the attention it deserves.
When should I start working on strategy?
Ideally, strategic planning begins in junior year. However, we work with students at all stages, adapting our approach to your timeline while maximizing your chances at every step.
