Hi! I'm Emily Brother and I graduated with honors from Harvard University in 2019 with a Bachelor of Arts. I have experience working at Harvard University in undergraduate student affairs and career advising, conducting alumni interviews for the Harvard Alumni Association, and guiding applicants through the college and graduate school application processes. My past clients have been admitted to the top schools of their choice including Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, MIT, and U.C. Berkeley.

My process

When we work together, I will help you navigate the crazy, stressful, and thrilling adventure that is the college application process. I will start by listening and learning about who you are, what excites you, what your ideal college experience looks, feels, and tastes like, and what you want to get out of our partnership. Then we will work on selecting schools, crafting authentic and compelling essays, asking for strong recommendation letters, preparing for interviews, applying for financial aid and scholarships, deciding between schools, drafting letters of continued interest, and preparing to matriculate. Throughout the process, I will work to understand your unique perspective and goals so that you can gain admission to a college where you will thrive academically, extracurricularly, socially, and personally. The best college for you is within reach and I hope to have the privilege of helping you get there.

***If you identify as a low-income or first-generation college student, please don't hesitate to reach out and we can discuss discounted pricing options.***
