Coaching outstanding students on US & UK university admissions

Selective US and UK universities create unrivaled opportunities for personal and academic growth—and professional success. Most are also eager to accept more international students in order to build the most diverse, talented student body possible.

But international students can be at a disadvantage in navigating unfamiliar admissions processes. It's not easy knowing what universities are a good fit or how to put your best foot forward.

A good college counselor, like a good teacher or coach, can make all the difference.

We were fortunate to find Loren, and we could breathe. Not only did the two of them get into their ED colleges in the US, but Loren’s incisive questioning and advice throughout offered them new insights into their strengths and interests.
