Initial assessment
We understand your goals as a family, assess the current profile, grade average and time to prepare, then design a plan around realistic goals.
A proven system. Personalised for you.
We guide your child from where they are to where they want to be, with honesty, strategy, and a plan built around their goals. Here is exactly how it works, from the first honest conversation to the offer letter.
It starts with the truth
We start by telling you the truth about where you stand.
Before we promise anything, we weigh four things. If a goal is too ambitious for the current profile, grades and time available, we will say so, kindly and clearly, rather than take your money and hope.
And even when the profile is strong, competitive programs demand a fallback. We help your child identify smart Plan B, C and D options that still align with their aspirations.
01
Goals
Where your child actually wants to go, and why it matters to them.
02
Profile
The extracurriculars and the story behind the grades.
03
Grade average
How it compares to the programs they are targeting.
04
Time to prepare
How much runway there is to close the gap.
Honest. Realistic. Strategic.
Three moves, in order
From a plan to an offer, step by step.
01 We build the profile.
Profile building
We guide your child through building their profile, selecting the right courses, and planning meaningful extracurriculars that align with their goals, not a scattered list of activities.
02 We sequence the strategy.
Application strategy
We walk through the applications together: when to prepare, what to prepare, the optimal order to complete them, and the strategic timing of every submission.
03 We protect the grades.
Academic excellence
We make sure the grade average is competitive through subject-specific tutoring, tailored to the exact programs your child is aiming for.
Not luck. A system.
Every offer our students earn starts the same way: an honest look, a clear plan, and someone walking it beside them.
Built around each student
Coaching, tutoring and advising, in one plan.
Delivered over Zoom and shared Google Docs, tracked in a central task manager, with a detailed email recap after every single session.
Admissions-focused advising
We build the extracurricular profile, identify grade-average gaps, and walk through the admissions process with a team that has done it before.
Tutoring
We help your child meet or exceed the competitive average for their target program with 1-on-1 tutoring, aligned to the overall strategy.
Student-focused financial advising
We maximise the funding your child is eligible for, navigating the financial-aid system at federal, provincial, school and community levels.
The principles underneath
Three principles we never bend on.
Clear next steps
We always tell you the next step, shared with students and parents by email after every session. Parents can observe from afar or get involved.
A curated approach
We tailor everything to each student, selecting advisors and tutors who adapt to different learning styles and individual needs.
Inspirational
We connect the work to the bigger picture, so it never feels like a chore. It feels like intentionally building an ideal future.
Questions
How the work actually runs.
Do you have dedicated advisors?
We work as a team. Your child works primarily with one advisor, and because each advisor, tutor and coach has different specialties, ambitious goals are supported by more than one specialist.
How long are the sessions?
Sessions are either 30 or 60 minutes, chosen at booking based on need. Tutoring sessions are always 60 minutes.
How do credits work?
One credit per 30-minute advising session, two credits per 60-minute advising session, or one credit per tutoring session.
What is the difference between advising, tutoring and coaching?
Advising is strategy, review and walkthrough of the admissions process. Tutoring is subject-specific work to lift grades. Coaching builds skills and the wider profile. Advising and coaching often overlap.
Do you support scholarships, grants and bursaries?
Yes. Our first goal is to make your investment cost-neutral. Our second is to help your child graduate debt-free by strategically accessing financial aid through Grade 12 and undergrad.
Do you write essays for students?
No. That would be unethical. We provide coaching, guidance, suggestions and line-by-line edits.
How do you communicate with parents?
Parents and students receive an email recap after every session, and there is a parent and guardian platform for progress visibility. For quick questions, email support@admissionprep.com and we respond within one business day.
How do you keep students accountable?
Three ways: we set tasks with deadlines each session, send a summary after every session, and always book the next one. If a student cancels or no-shows, we follow up to reschedule.
What if I have a quick question?
Email support@admissionprep.com and we respond within one business day.
