Apply with Intention
Do you have your super-reach dream schools picked out but no idea about more reasonable options? Are you unsure which applications to prioritize for best results? Do you need a school that will give you merit aid or meet full need? Are you struggling to decide between liberal arts colleges and large research universities? What even is the difference? And what makes a school a reach, a match, or a likely school?
Emily can help!
Having visited over 40 campuses in the last three years and having helped students apply to countless more, Emily has intimate knowledge of what makes each school special and what type of applicants they seek. With these insights, Emily will work with students to help them evaluate schools and build a well-balanced list of colleges based on their specific goals.
Emily’s combines the latest data with her extensive admissions experience to enhance students’ clarity on which schools are realistic options and what they can do to boost their admissions odds. Her application strategy guidance covers the relative advantages of different application plans (early action, early decision, early decision two, and regular decision), test-score submission, choice of major, and application theme, to maximize students’ chances at their dream school.
As with all her work, Emily brings her commitment to reducing student and parent stress. Whether it’s taking advantage of rolling admissions to get students their first acceptance sooner or introducing students to exceptionally strong programs at less-selective colleges, Emily leverages her expertise to make her students’ college applications stress-free— and ensure they end the process with acceptances they’re satisfied with. Whether you’re interested in the Ohio State University or Harvard University, Emily can help you build a list of best-fit colleges.
“My son’s list-building meetings were so incredibly helpful. Emily gave us clear data about where he stood, suggestions about which schools he would benefit from visiting, and challenged us to consider schools we would not have considered otherwise. In fact, my son’s future college– Davidson College in North Carolina– was not on our radar until Emily recommended it.”
