**This pricing is for graduate school applicants not including MBA or medical school applicants. For MBA services, please see the MBA Admissions Consulting Page. For medical school applicants, please see the Medical School Admissions Consulting Page.

*These prices apply to one application cycle. Financial aid and essays associated with financial aid are not included. For any other services not included in the package, we charge our standard a-la-carte fee.

For typical graduate school admissions clients, we suggest applying to at least seven schools (divided between safety, mid-range, and reach schools) to maximize the chances of gaining admission to at least one school. Your admissions consultant will provide greater detail about which schools fit into which category for you.

To maximize the chances of gaining admission to a competitive university, we suggest applying to at least ten schools (divided between safety, mid-range, and reach schools).

*** Our experience shows that without a waitlist appeal letter or letter of continued interest, the applicant has a 12% chance of getting off a waitlist at a competitive school. With a good waitlist appeal letter and waitlist campaign, that moves up to 45%. A waitlist campaign involves contacting the school on multiple occasions every few months to remind them of clients’ accomplishments and continued interest.
