5.0

Set yourself up for long-term success by getting expert help in the early stages of your dental school application process. This flexible package helps you focus on what's most important, right now — without committing to a start-to-finish engagement. You’ll partner with a Leland coach to strategically tackle the parts of the process that will have the greatest impact. Your coach will help you prioritize your time, identify key areas of opportunity, and build momentum toward your target schools. Common coaching activities in this package include, but are not limited to: 1. Creating an Application Plan: Dive into your background, professional and personal experiences, dream schools, career aspirations, and more. Together, you and your coach will develop a customized plan specifically tailored to your dental school application journey. 2. School Selection: Collaborate closely with your coach to compile a list of optimal dental schools that align with your profile, aspirations, and preferences. 3. Application Strategy: Your coach will help you identify your unique strengths and advantages as an applicant and plan how to effectively showcase those strengths throughout your dental school application. If you're concerned about any part of your application profile, like your DAT score or GPA, your coach will help you develop an application that proactively addresses these areas and effectively spotlights your strengths. 4. Personal Statement Brainstorming, Advising & Editing: Get expert guidance and feedback from your coach on your personal statement. Find confidence in a narrative that effectively highlights your motivations, experiences, and aspirations. 5. Activity Descriptions: Work closely with your coach to decide which extracurricular activities, experiences, awards, and honors to include and how to describe them in a way that fits your application's broader narrative. 6. Letters of Recommendation: Strategize with your coach about choosing potential recommenders, making recommendation requests, and supporting recommenders so you can be sure you're getting strong letters of recommendation. 8. Secondaries Advising & Editing: Understand exactly what each school is looking for in their secondaries and get personalized advising support from your coach. This package is ideal for applicants who want high-leverage support early in the process. It’s your launchpad to a stronger, more intentional dental school application — guided by world-class admissions coaches.

  • Worth Every Single Penny... AND THEN SOME!

    Working with Ellen was an absolute game changer to my entire application process! If it was not for her expertise and wisdom, this would have never happened. From beginning to end, Ellen was there for every question, she was honest when she needed to be, and she instilled an immense sense of confidence in me. Through every bump, Ellen was there to guide me and encourage me through every step of the way, and never did I feel that I was doing this alone. I felt like I was in a boxing match with a world champion coach in my corner. We overcame big challenges while being a non-traditional student, and I am confident that without her help I would not have been able to develop such a quality application that highlights all of my strengths. I'd make sure to use her services if I went through this process again, and I STRONGLY encourage other students to book time with her, it will change everything. As the title says, WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY...AND THEN SOME!

  • Ellen was my North Star

    Entering the application cycle, I initially felt overwhelmed by the process and uncertain about what admissions committees were truly seeking. The volume of conflicting information available online only deepened my uncertainty. Then I found Ellen who was my North Star the entire time! I entrusted her with the entire process and she expertly helped me with each step, giving me confidence in my application, interviews and everything in between. Ellen was exceptionally responsive and reliable in all our communications, ensuring our collaboration on drafts and materials was efficient and timely. Whenever I had a question and I was getting conflicting advice I would always consult with Ellen and did what she suggested. Her guidance was invaluable, particularly when I encountered unforeseen challenges. She provided the crucial insight and steady support that helped me remain composed and advocate for myself confidently during a high-stakes period. I am profoundly grateful for her exceptional assistance and highly recommend her services.

  • Super Helpful and Kind!

    Ty helped me out with both editing my personal statement and preparing for my dental school interviews. I'm really happy with our time together, as he helped me make my personal statement stronger since he provided very specific and helpful feedback! As well, for interview prep, we did a mock interview together and when I interviewed for UCLA, some of the questions they asked were the same ones that Ty prepped me for! Looking forward to getting a few acceptances this cycle and will be updating soon. Thank you, Ty!!! You're awesome!!!!

  • Easily understands your concerns

    Ms. Ellen is a great interview coach. I was extremely nervous before the interview but she suggested I meet her an hour before my scheduled interview. She helped me calm down and boosted my confidence to do well in the interview.
