What's included
This is a comprehensive, end-to-end virtual coaching engagement designed for students managing a larger or more essay-intensive application process. We will begin with a detailed assessment of the student’s academic record, activities, goals, and prospective college list. From there, we will develop a personalized admissions strategy, application timeline, and writing plan. Sessions will occur regularly throughout the engagement, with increased meeting frequency when appropriate around major application deadlines. My coaching style is strategic, candid, supportive, and highly personalized. I combine extensive admissions experience with professional training in school counseling to help students stay organized, make informed decisions, and present their strongest authentic applications. Essay coaching is collaborative. I help students identify meaningful topics, strengthen their structure and storytelling, and refine their writing while preserving their individual voice. I do not write essays or application materials for students. Written feedback will be provided through shared documents. Each meeting will conclude with clear priorities and action items, followed by a written summary. Brief questions are welcome by email between sessions and will generally receive a response within two business days. Parents will participate at appropriate strategic checkpoints while the student remains the primary participant and owner of the process.

Expert Admissions Coach
I’m a college admissions strategist and school counselor with nearly a decade of experience helping students turn their interests, experiences, and ambitions into thoughtful plans for college and beyond. Before founding Stewart Educational Consulting, I served as Head Educational Strategist at a national college admissions consulting firm, where I led and coached a team of strategists while advising students and families navigating highly selective admissions. Throughout my career, I have supported hundreds of students, reviewed hundreds of applications annually, and contributed to outcomes including Ivy League acceptances and Top 20 universities. My approach combines strategic admissions expertise with a foundation in counseling. I help students strengthen their academic and extracurricular positioning, develop balanced college lists, manage the application process, and create personal statements and supplemental essays that genuinely reflect who they are. I believe the best coaching provides more than a polished application. It gives students clarity, accountability, and the confidence to take ownership of their story. My goal is to make an often-overwhelming process feel organized, purposeful, and manageable for both students and their families.
