      The Ivy Institute of College exceeded every expectation I had. From the very first consultation, their team took the time to understand my goals and create a personalized plan that truly worked. They helped me refine my essays, strengthen my application, and prepare for interviews with expert advice and genuine care. Thanks to their guidance, I felt confident every step of the way and successfully gained admission to my top choice university. I can't thank this company enough for their dedication and professionalism.

      I saw my son almost burn out attempting to balance essays, sports, and AP classes. I wanted to help as a parent, but I wasn't sure how to help. You know how boys can be when a parent tells them to do something... We were both relieved of that stress by The Ivy Institute. They never made him sound generic, held him responsible, and provided constructive criticism. His life changed when he received acceptances to Rice, CMU, and Tulane. The peace of mind was worth it to me!!

      The Ivy Institute provided top-notch educational consulting throughout my entire admissions journey. They helped me with school selection, essay writing, and interview prep. Every session felt customized to my needs, and their advice helped me stand out in a very competitive pool. I ended up getting accepted to multiple ********** universities, and I couldnt be happier.

      I didn't realize how important the essays were because I was applying from outside *****************. Ivy Institute helped me modify my writing style without losing my voice and provided detailed explanations of everything. They helped me get accepted to ***** and ***. The procedure seemed less daunting, and I at last realized how to demonstrate my identity outside of my academic performance.

      The ivy institute is a company that helps you while applying to schools. They review your application and even help you with essays. They are there to help answer any question and walk you through the whole process. A few people I know went through them with great outcomes.

      I started at ******** this fall and honestly I still cant believe it. When I began the process, I was really worried. As an Asian male applying to computer science, I had seen and heard all the horror stories and figured it was basically impossible. Then I remembered my cousin had used an admissions consultant, and when I asked, he told me it was The Ivy Institute. From the very first call, they made me feel better, sharing their approach and how they work with students like me. My counselor met with me 23 times a week, often for an hour, and worked with me through every stage. We brainstormed, strategized essay ideas, and they gave feedback literally word by word. At first, I was nervous because their suggested essay topic wasnt like any of the success story essays I saw online. They encouraged me to explore different essay topics and approaches to see which I felt best about, and I ended up with five or more drafts. But honestly, I felt they "looked" more like the ones I saw online but still wasn't really happy with them. What made the difference was when my counselor suggested I share them with friends and family to get a vote of which they liked best and to see which sounded most like me. Everyone, literally unanimously, loved the version they had guided me to. I was still a bit worried but eventually was just like alright I guess I will listen to everyone and just go with it. And sure enough, when I saw my ******** *** acceptance, and then a few weeks later got a card in the mail from my regional admissions officer quoting my essay and saying how much it impressed her, I knew The Ivy Institutes process worked. Let's just say Im a true believer in them now and would recommend them to anyone aiming for a T20 school.

      Working with The Ivy Institute was an incredible experience for me. I received assistance from their team during the entire college application process, and I was accepted into two ********** schools! Their assistance with my essays was particularly helpful, and they encouraged me to reflect more deeply and articulate my thoughts more succinctly while always ensuring that the writing remained true to myself. They helped me think strategically about how to communicate my story, and not just focus on what "looks good" or what a colleges "wants to see" Their responsiveness and encouragement throughout the process were what truly caught my attention. They helped me feel seen and supported, so I never felt like just another student. With their help, I was able to submit applications of which I was genuinely proud. Strongly advised!
