M got into his dream school AND received over $100k of merit aid at a school where only 3% of students receive merit money.  This wouldn't have happened without Jen who made this crazy process look so easy. Thanks Jen!  

I wanted to share with you what an absolutely amazing experience we had with Jeannie in working on A’s college applications (and Beth in guiding E as a freshman).

The journey from being in a school mindset to one aspiring to a robust college career is a difficult one, especially in an immigrant family like ours.

Ivey Consulting was an amazing and seamless experience for me. I was able to form a close personal relationship with Beth which made the whole process comfortable and the least stressful it could be, considering the stakes.

Thank You...We could not have done it without you. For once I am at a loss for words... so I'll sign off, gather my wits, go to work and cherish the process we went through together.

I can't believe I haven't told you, I opted for BC :) Thanks for everything you really helped me so much with the whole process. It's my brother's turn soon. He is a completely different person in terms of the way he does work and of course personality, haha but I believe you'll do the same for him :). 

Again thanks for everything! 

Well W is finally off to school, and I wanted to thank you for your invaluable counsel as he worked through the college process. Having spent last weekend at Northwestern, I am so excited for W and have a great feeling about it as the right place for him. You did such a great job of showing him the world of possibilities, helping him to navigate the process, and helping him to fully think through his decision.

Thank you for sharing your "wow" assessment of J's work. It means a great deal, especially coming from you. Your insight and guidance through the whole college process has been (and continues to be) greatly valued and appreciated. 

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I decided to commit to George Washington University! I think it will be a pretty awesome place to go to school. Also, thanks for helping me with everything! 

I was wondering if I could have your mailing address (haha I know that sounds weird) so I could send you a graduation announcement. If not, I can always scan it to you!

We are very proud of M - he’s worked hard in a number of areas to put himself in a great position. We can’t believe he’s going off to college so soon! We are equally excited about him getting into a challenging environment in the US and making the most of the experience.

We really want to thank you for all your care and attention to M over the past four years. We think you’ve had a tremendous impact on his focus, planning and goal setting which has materialized into great accomplishments. As a result, what should have been overwhelming and stressful - applying to colleges -- has been somewhat anticlimactic in a good way. Being proactive and having a plan has put M in this position.

Also, your advice to us on school choice has been invaluable.  Pomona wouldn’t have been on the top of our list (or on our list) when this process started, but now we truly feel that Pomona will be a tremendous fit for M and we feel good about his decision.  

We need to talk about our 7th grader next!  

[Our son] listened to you more than us.  He began to understand the implications of the process and his relative position within it. You provided us with perspective, which at times was essential to being able to coexist with the lad.

Honestly, I think your point about the student presenting a consistent, cohesive picture of himself was important. For many kids and parents (as you obviously know) the tendency is to try to hit all of targets as hard as possible each on an individual basis, and that likely does not ring true on the other end.

Choosing to work with Ivey Consulting was the best decision I could have made for my law school application process. I worked with Teresa who was insightful, constructive, and supportive at every step of the process.

Indrani was a godsend during my law school application process. I was working full-time and initially felt pretty overwhelmed and confused by the process.

From the beginning, Indrani demystified the process and helped me create a realistic school list, timeline (including studying for and taking the LSAT), and a to-do list, which eased a lot of anxiety.

Working with Indrani helped me navigate the stressful law school admissions process with ease. She has invaluable insights that helped me succeed in my application process and achieve my goals. Indrani is great at giving feedback and was incredibly invested in my success as an applicant. I couldn't say more how valuable working with Indrani and the Anna Ivey team was for me during my application process.

As a reverse splitter and international re-applicant, I was confident in my strengths but unsure how to craft a compelling application. Ada helped me understand what admissions committees look for and guided me through writing each essay so that my voice stood out and my strengths were showcased in the best possible way. On top of that, the entire Anna Ivey Team has been nothing but professional and punctual throughout the process (super important with rolling admissions timeline). It has truly been a pleasure

I have no doubt that working with Teresa and the team at Ivey Consulting played a huge role in my successes during the law school application process. From the very beginning, Teresa worked diligently to ensure that my application (especially my personal statement) was not just strong but outstanding. We parsed through countless drafts together, addressing everything from major thematic points to the minute details that gave my essay its voice.

In my first conversation with Janeille, she listened to a jumble of my seemingly unrelated experiences and asked questions that pushed me to reflect deeper on my experiences. I was left with chills at the end of our call. After writing a draft, her edits were detailed, and it became clear that she was thoughtfully reviewing every sentence, word, and punctuation. Ultimately, the personal statement was a cohesive, genuine piece of writing that let admissions learn a great deal about me in only two pages. Janeille’s help didn’t stop at the essays.

I was admitted to my top choice T-14 school and could not have done it without Ada’s guidance. From the outset, Ada quickly picked up on the factors that set me apart as an applicant and provided key insights on how to best communicate my strengths.

I would highly recommend Indrani to anyone looking to strengthen their law school applications. I was a reverse splitter so I knew that I had to put my best foot forward in my applications strategy and essays. Indrani was extremely insightful, patient, and honest throughout the entire process.

I simply wanted to extend a sincere and profound thank you for all the drafts you edited and the advice you offered as we applied to so many different law schools. The process made me realize sometimes one's biggest strength is having the self-awareness to understand where one's weaknesses are and seeking the necessary help to compensate for them.

The experience of working with the Anna Ivey team is nothing short of phenomenal.  Their expertise, careful listening, and investment in my success resulted in the best possible admissions outcomes for me. I could not be more grateful. 

Thank you so much for being apart of this journey and sticking by me when no one else did. Thank you for believing in me.

It is impossible to quantify the value of the help provided by Indrani and the Anna Ivey team throughout the application process. I am not being hyperbolic - the value of an advisor does not lie solely in the benefits of brainstorming and technical feedback on writing.
