A Focus on the Whole Student
Our focused commitment to discovering, drawing out, and presenting the “whole student” sets Bespoke’s College Counseling Program apart. No matter when we begin our journey together with students, we can offer the resources and support they need to raise the odds of success–and minimize anxiety along the way.
Dedicated, Experienced Professionals
Our College Counselors have worked for years in admissions at prestigious universities, in high school college guidance, and privately on college essays, interviews, and admissions. In addition to their vast experience, college counselors bring real-world insights to help students maneuver adroitly through the college admissions process.
A Network of Experts
Unlike independent college admissions advisors, our College Counselors work with a team of in-house tutors, executive function coaches, writing advisors, and interview specialists focused on empowering college-bound students to conquer their college applications.
A Personalized Process
Our College Counselors combine a team-based approach with careful personal attention to each student. Their goal: build students’ trust and confidence by seeking to fully understand their motivations, interests, aspirations, and goals.
Coach. Mentor. Friend
Our College Counselors become students’ advisors, mentors, coaches, cheerleaders, and advocates- always working to build students’ understanding of themselves and confidence in their decision making. The relationships between students and their counselors often endure beyond the admissions process, with students seeking out their advice and perspective long into their college days and beyond.
