How it works
Every student's plan looks different. The steps are the same.
A profile review
A first call or a meeting at Orchard Road. We look at grades, subjects, activities and the universities your child is thinking about. You leave knowing what's realistic and what we'd do first. Some families stop there.
A written proposal
We send the programmes we'd suggest, the number of sessions and the timeline. You can drop any piece you don't want.
Your child's five mentors
One mentor leads and owns the plan. The others take essays, tests, interviews and portfolio work. They meet, they share notes, and they work from one timeline.
The work
Sessions run in the order things are due. Portfolio and research first, then tests, then essays, then interviews. We give feedback, ask questions and push back. We don't write anything for your child. Every essay is theirs, and it sounds like them.
Applications and interviews
We check every application before it goes in, then run mock interviews as invitations arrive.
Decisions
When offers come in, we help your child compare them. If there's a waitlist or a deferral, we plan that too.
When to start
- Ages 12 to 14: Early Years Guidance.
- Grade 9 or 10: portfolio, research and reading begin.
- Grade 11: tests, shortlists, the first drafts.
- Grade 12: essays, applications and interviews.
- Later than that: still worth a call. We'll tell you what's possible.
Keeping you informed
Parents get written progress reports through the programme, and you can message us at any point.

We’ll tell you, honestly, what we’d do next.
