Student story

Up to ten universities across the UK and US, balanced for ambition and fit.
Personal statement
Unlimited drafts with your advisor, and not a word written for you.

Admissions tests
Preparation for the UCAT, LNAT, TMUA, SAT and ACT where needed.
Interviews
Mock interviews with former admissions tutors, with written feedback.
Offers
Help comparing offers and scholarships, and making the final call.
Advisors
The people your child will work with
Former admissions readers, school registrars and teachers. Every one of them has sat on the other side of the desk.
A typical year
Eighteen months, four seasons
Every family gets a written calendar after the first consultation. Most look something like this.
Questions
Asked before you ask
The things parents want to know before the first call, answered the way we would answer them in the room.
Still not answered?
Ask it on the call. Thirty minutes, no commitment, and a straight answer either way.
When should we start?
The spring of Year 12 is ideal. It leaves a full summer for the personal statement and time to visit universities before the shortlist is final.
Can you help with both UK and US applications?
Yes. Many of our students apply to both. One advisor plans the whole round so the UCAS statement and the US essays tell one consistent story without repeating it.
Do you help choose the course, or only the university?
Both. We start with the subject, because admissions tutors read for fit with a course. The universities follow from that choice.
How many applications are included?
Up to ten universities across the UK and US in one admissions round. School placement covers every school on the agreed shortlist.
Who will we work with?
One senior advisor from the first meeting to the final offer. They bring in specialists for tests, interviews or scholarships only when the application needs them.
What if my child wants to apply again next year?
We offer a reapplication programme at a reduced fee, with the same advisor, and a frank review of what to change.
