Introduction

I view each student's application process as a personal challenge to find the best possible options for the student. For this reason, I devote a lot of time and effort to understanding those qualities that make them stand out from the rest of the crowd and proceed from that point to skillfully package their unique attributes and accomplishments. For example, I recently helped a home school student without a formal high school transcript get accepted at a highly selective art school. I concentrated on showcasing his artistic talent, rich array of extracurricular activities, and a personal statement written from a unique perspective.
