Developed by former Director of Admissions at Cornell University, and current Director of College Admissions at Ivy Tutors Network, John Morganelli, it’s the literal blueprint you need to earn acceptance into your top choice schools.

Our Testimonials

Private School Parent of Twins
I’m sharing the photo of our very happy Yale-bound seniors!! My girls could not be prouder, happier, or more grateful!! The girls are 2 of only 3 kids, not only accepted to Yale early, but accepted to any of Yale, Harvard, Princeton!! Typically there would be 10 from that cluster!
Public School Student
I still can’t believe I was admitted to Columbia's Fu Foundation School of Engineering through Early Decision!!! I want to thank you for your support. I couldn’t have done it without your wonderful coaches!
NYC Parent
I wanted to tell you that [my daughter] got into Michigan. She was also accepted at U Mass and UVM with merit money and Binghamton as well, but Michigan is huge – apparently very few students were accepted so far and she is the only one from Beacon. Thank you for your help - we are thrilled.

Everything Included in Your College Application BluePrint

Suggested Prospective Majors

Our team proposes several options for prospective majors based on the student’s interest, strength, and goals. Choosing the “right” major can have a dramatic impact on acceptance and our program provides options to the student that give them the best chance at success.

In-School Engagement Ideas

High school is a great time for students to explore interests. Choosing a few key in-school activities, however, can set them up for college application success. BluePrint provides students with tailored recommendations for in-school engagement activities to enhance their profile and align with their academic and personal interests.

Independent Project Recommendations

A clear demonstration of initiative is needed for acceptance to top universities, and an independent project is one of the best ways to do this. BluePrint provides customized research questions to help students delve into topics that resonate with their academic pursuits and demonstrate a genuine passion for learning.

Summer Program Suggestions

Summer is a great opportunity to showcase the student’s dedication to personal and intellectual growth (while still remembering to have some fun!). But all summer programs are not created equal. BluePrint offers recommendations based on the student’s interests that will add perspective and valuable experiences to their college application.

Application Theme Guidance

BluePrint is based on our expert-crafted PAGE method which relies on a unique application “ethos” or theme - and determining this theme is often the most intimidating part for students and their families. Your college admissions BluePrint will include expert guidance and concrete suggestions for the student’s ethos statement.

Theme-Infused Activity List Suggestions

It is not just what activities a student participates in, but how they participate. Your BluePrint will provide clear examples of how to leverage and implement your application theme (ethos) into your application’s activity list.

Theme-Infused Personal Statement Guidance

The PAGE method is most effective when the application theme - ethos - runs clearly throughout, including in the personal statement. Your BluePrint offers personalized guidance for the creation of a compelling personal statement that reinforces your ethos.

Theme-Infused Supplemental Essay Suggestions

Use the supplemental essay section to your advantage by taking the opportunity to showcase your unique perspective in this extra space. Your BluePrint includes step-by-step instructions and examples to assist in crafting supplemental essays that align with the overarching theme of your application.

Financial Aid Overview

Receiving the best financial aid package possible is often of key importance to students and their families. Included in BluePrint is an overview of the financial aid process with a summary of how the process works and helpful definitions.

Timeline For Success

Take the guesswork out of what to do when. Included in BluePrint is our season-by-season calendar, walking you through the summer prior to 9th grade through 12th grade graduation, and providing you with our expert recommendation for what to do now, and what can wait. Knowing what to do when helps keep you on track and stressing less!
