College Admissions Coach | Yale BA/MPH
I'm Abel Geleta, Yale BA '25, MPH '26. I know the college and graduate school application from both sides: applicant and reviewer. I wrote applications that got me into Yale College and Yale School of Public Health and Management. I was a First-Year Counselor in Berkeley College and an Undergraduate Writing Partner for Yale Poorvu Center for Teaching and Learning, guiding Yale students through their applications many times. Over the past five years, I've coached many students through essays, application strategy, and interviews. If you want a coach who went through this recently and reads applications with an insider's eye, I'm happy work together.
