For nearly a decade, starting at the age of 22, I have helped students successfully navigate the UK university admissions process. From crafting compelling personal statements to excelling in interviews and understanding key questions, I guide applicants in selecting the right mix of universities based on their GCSE, A-level, or IB performance. I also specialise in supporting international students, helping them understand what is achievable within the UK system and positioning themselves for success. Having personally gained admission to top UK universities, including Cambridge, LSE, Warwick, and Exeter, I bring firsthand experience to the process. As a graduate of two leading UK institutions—Cambridge (MPhil) and Warwick (PPE)—and later, as an international student who successfully navigated the US admissions process to earn an MBA with Distinction from Harvard, I understand how to stand out in highly competitive applicant pools. My students have consistently secured places at prestigious universities such as Oxford, LSE, and UCL. With deep insight into the admissions system and a proven track record of success, I am committed to helping students unlock their potential and achieve their academic goals.

Welcome! I’m Mike, a professional admissions coach (Ex-Trinity Admissions) here to help you navigate every stage of the college application process. I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel, but you don’t have to go it alone. When I applied to college, I faced fierce competition while striving for academic excellence, securing scholarships, and balancing extracurricular commitments. Along the way, I not only learned how to craft a compelling application but also how to adapt under pressure—a skill I instill in my students as they navigate their own challenges. Later, while working in admissions at Trinity College, I gained firsthand insight into how applications are reviewed, what makes an applicant stand out, and how decisions are made behind the scenes. I also saw how non-traditional predictors of success—like resilience, leadership, and personal growth—can make all the difference in a competitive application. As a seasoned mentor, I know what truly makes an applicant shine—not just on paper, but in the minds of admissions committees. My coaching is structured, results-driven, and deeply personalized. Whether you’re a high school student exploring your options, a junior or senior preparing your application, or a transfer student looking for the right fit, I’ll meet you where you are and help you take the next steps in your journey. By identifying your unique strengths and aspirations, we’ll craft a winning strategy that allows you to progress while maintaining wellness amidst academic stress. If you’re ready to take the next step, let’s build your path to college together—I’d love to help you succeed!
