Student stories

Every plan starts with the student. The results follow.

Committed · Student from India

Harvard University

“I got into five of the seven colleges I applied to, including Harvard and Stanford. Suhani helped my teachers see the full story behind my RSI research, and her recommendation strategy made my application so much stronger.”

Student, Class of 2030
Also admitted to Stanford, Emory, the University of British Columbia and UConn

Committed · Biomedical computation

Stanford University

“Suhani guided me through every essay and every part of my Common App. She pushed my writing until it sounded like me at my best, and now I’m going to Stanford.”

Student, Class of 2030
Also admitted to Johns Hopkins, Rice, UCLA, UC Berkeley, USC, Michigan and Georgia Tech (Stamps Gold Scholar)

Admitted with financial aid · Student from Canada

Princeton University

“I honestly couldn’t be more happy. Suhani helped me figure out what I wanted to study and what made my story different, then shaped every essay around it. Getting into Princeton with financial aid still feels unreal.”

Student, Class of 2030

Your counselor

Hi, I’m Suhani.

I was the first in my family to attend university in the United States, so I know how much the right guidance can change a student’s path. Today I help students across the US and around the world find what makes them distinct and tell that story with confidence.

Ways to work together

Ongoing counseling is where we can do the most for your student

Recommended · Ongoing counseling package

Admissions officers read a student’s whole story, not one essay or one activity. Ongoing counseling builds that story with you from the year you start through your final decision.

A small caseload, by design. We take a limited number of students each year, so yours gets deeper attention than a large company can give.
Insider perspective. Insight from inside admissions offices and leading consultancies, applied to one student at a time.
One coherent strategy. Courses, summers, projects, college list, essays, interviews and financial strategy, planned together so every piece supports the same story.
The same primary counselor, start to finish. Regular one-on-one sessions with Suhani and support between meetings, with expert essay editors and former admissions officers where they help most.

Start with a conversation.

Tell us where your student is today and where they hope to go. You’ll leave with a clear view of their next steps, the specific ways we can help, and a personalized counseling plan built on their current profile.
