Princeton Grad & Marshall Scholar | Ivy + Oxbridge Admissions Coaching

I went to Princeton, then won a Marshall Scholarship to Oxford, and was admitted to Harvard Law two years early through its Junior Deferral Program. I have spent the last three years at Write Track Admissions helping students build applications for exactly these kinds of places. Admissions officers at selective universities read thousands of applications that are, on paper, interchangeable. Strong grades, credible activities, competent essays. What separates the file that gets in is not another accolade. It is a clear sense of who the applicant is and what they will do with the place they are asking for. That is the thing most applicants never articulate, and it is what we work on first. What we work on: - A school list that is honest about your chances and still ambitious - The Common App personal essay, from the first idea through to a final draft that sounds like you - Supplemental and "Why us" essays, which is where most applications are actually decided - Your activities list and honours, written to show scale and initiative rather than participation - Choosing and briefing recommenders - Interviews, and waitlist strategy if it comes to that I also work with students applying to Oxford, Cambridge and other UK universities, including the personal statement, admissions tests and interview preparation, which the UK system weights very differently to the US. If you are applying on both sides of the Atlantic, I can handle both. Background: Princeton University, School of Public and International Affairs; Marshall Scholar and DPhil candidate at the University of Oxford; JD at Harvard Law School via the Junior Deferral Program.
