Seyoon dreamed of attending Princeton University, however, he also understood that getting into an Ivy League isn’t a simple equation. Students are required to:
- Sit entry tests
- Write personal essays
- List extracurricular and leadership activities
- Provide recommendation letters from teachers
- Attend interviews
On top of all this, US university admissions are a statistical nightmare. Of the 32,000 applicants to Princeton each year, only 1,800 get in!
Seyoon needed a strategy.
Seyoon’s story
Crimson connected Seyoon with a team of tutors and mentors to support him with:
- University admissions consulting
- Interview training
- Financial aid applicant support
The first step was for Seyoon and his team to identify a list of schools to apply to, including his dream school (Princeton) and some “back up” colleges (Harvard, Stanford, UCLA and UC Berkeley).
Crimson supported Seyoon through the application pathway, helping him understand the nuances of each college’s admission process.
In the end, Seyoon achieved some remarkable results, including admission into his dream college, Princeton.
