Cultivating the spark already inside you.

While some start during senior year through our application bootcamp, the real work is done before application season. We strongly believe in getting to know the student and cultivating a mentorship role so we can help nurture the budding young adult over multiple years. A strong application package is a natural by-product vs. the central goal. We want your child to succeed at their dream college and beyond.

Colleges want to admit a candidate that can show who they truly are — not an academic checklist. It can be hard for a teen to know exactly how to cultivate their variety of interests. We're here to help nurture those passions into internships, projects, maybe even a business. From brainstorming, testing, to implementing, we'll be there to provide advice and guidance at every step. Most importantly, we believe mentoring these interests is what actually creates a well-developed individual. A strong application package will naturally follow.

We are highly tailored and curated — working with only 5 students for our inaugural summer/fall 2026 class. Our approach comes from the lens of someone who's walked this path — from college and beyond. Other services only offer a few hours with the "senior counselors." Each student will work directly with Andy and get his full attention.

We believe that each family and student deserves personal attention and guidance. You're placing immense trust in us — in return, we are guaranteeing direct access and availability. Unlike most firms in this industry, we are deliberately focusing on a boutique level of service and attention. We believe this leads to successful outcomes and have built our model around this.

No — and you should steer far away from anyone who does. What we can guarantee is a devoted and curated approach to treating each student with care. We don't take your trust lightly and respond by developing a tailored approach — bespoke for each student.

Yes. All sessions are held remotely over video calls with in-person visits where appropriate.

We don't charge for our initial consultation. We use the 30-minute call to understand who your child is, their ambitions, and where they currently are in their process. If we believe it's a fit, we will lay out our recommendations and package.

Every student is coming to us at different stages in their process so we don't have a one-size-fits-all pricing model. If we determine it's a fit during the initial consultation, we will clearly lay out pricing and expectations before you make your decision.
