College admissions consulting and research mentorship

Two programs, one consultation. Daniel Kang and Andrew Kang have guided hundreds of applicants and lead every engagement themselves — start with the program that matches where the student is now, and thirty minutes with the founders settles which one fits.

    A full year to build the strongest possible application.
