Ivy Gate has been astonishingly helpful in many aspects regarding the college application process. Initially, I was slightly apprehensive with the quality of assistance, as Jeremy (Ivy Gate Partner) was halfway across the globe when I needed his help the most. However, Jeremy has been very attentive to the needs of his students, and I encountered no difficulties in having all my questions answered. Jeremy was also a pivotal part of the essay writing process – the people from Ivy Gate give invaluable advice as to which direction to steer your essay in because they clearly know what admissions officers are expecting, since they’ve already been through it all. All in all, Jeremy helped me particularly in eliminating any of the ambiguities I encountered in the college application process, which I believe is a major obstacle faced by many seniors.

Dear Maggie (Ivy Gate Consultant),

I am pleased with the results. It is not just the result but the whole journey of college application process is a success to all of us. Each of us learned from all aspects of it, my daughter in particular. I am sure she is the one who benefited the most, as you said, she has matured and gained much confidence about herself. This is exactly what I wanted her to learn and to grow through finding her inadequacy, her abilities and her expectation on life. Both Eliott (Ivy Gate Partner) and you contributed a very big part of it. Thank you.

Completing my college applications was both complicated and overwhelming at times, and I would like to thank Ivy Gate for making the whole process much easier for me.  Along with a great team of dedicated members, my Consultant guided me
through the application process with personalized attention, and provided me with useful advice related to writing my essays. Just before the application deadline, I attended an Ivy Gate seminar, ‘The Last Mile’, where counselors from a wide range of universities gave me suggestions as to how to improve my essays, and gave me the inspiration I needed to finalize incomplete ones.

Ivy Gate has allowed me to produce the best college essays I have ever written. I am pleased with the overall essay writing process – from brainstorming, making improvements, to touching up on the essay. Ivy Gate was able to enlighten me with brilliant ideas, suggest realistic improvements, and provide personal assistance regarding the whole application process. What surprises me most, however, was the university-specific advice that Ivy Gate representatives were able to give me, so that I had a clear understanding of what admission officers are expecting. Such invaluable advice helped me target my essay content to the schools I was applying to, helping me reach for my dreams.
