OUR DIFFERENCE

While other firms wait for junior year panic, we begin when it matters most — when passions are forming, habits are building, and strategy is still possible.

FAMILY STORIES

What families are saying.

We started with Ivysion when our son was in 7th grade. By the time applications came around, he wasn’t scrambling, he was choosing from a position of strength.

Having the same advisor for four years made all the difference. She knew my daughter’s story better than anyone and helped us see possibilities we never would have found alone.

After being quoted $80K by another firm with no breakdown, Ivysion’s transparency was a revelation. We knew exactly what we were paying for and what we’d get.

Why start in 7th grade? Isn’t that too early? +

Not at all. The most impactful admissions decisions such as course tracks, extracurricular depth, and interest development are made in middle school. Starting early doesn’t mean stressing early. It means having a calm, strategic plan instead of a reactive scramble in junior year. Our Early Vision families consistently report less stress, not more.

What does “one advisor” really mean? +

It means the same advisor being works with your family from day one to decision day. They attend every meeting, review every document, and know your child’s story inside and out. No rotations, no hand-offs, no having to re-explain your situation to a new face every semester.

How is your pricing different from other firms? +

Most firms require you to schedule a sales call to even learn what their services cost. We publish every package, every fee, every add-on on our website before you ever speak with us. Full Journey families also lock their rate at enrollment — your price never goes up, no matter how many years you’re with us.

Can we join in 10th or 11th grade? +

Absolutely. While our Full Journey program starts in 7th grade, our Strategic Positioning (9–10) and Application Mastery (11–12) programs are designed for families joining at any point. We’ll meet your child exactly where they are and build the strongest possible path forward from there.

What kinds of schools do your students get into? +

We help families target the right schools, not just the most selective ones. Our students have been accepted to Ivy League universities, top liberal arts colleges, competitive state schools, and specialized programs — but more importantly, they land at schools where they genuinely thrive.

Do you guarantee admission to specific schools? +

No — and we’d encourage you to be wary of any firm that does. What we guarantee is a rigorous, strategic, transparent process that positions your child as the strongest possible version of themselves. That approach produces outstanding outcomes, but honest consulting means honest expectations.

Your child’s future
deserves a real plan.
