About Matthew J.T.

Hi,

As a former Private College Counselor and Member of the Administration of an Ivy League University, I understand the pressure of the application process. But I also understand how to use an applicant's own strengths and interests to present an attractive candidate for admission. My rates are low for the level of quality I can provide because I enjoy my work. Please feel free to ask me any questions about the services I am available for:

-School Choice (Choosing which schools meet the applicant’s objectives & where to apply early)
-Essay Development (Writing essays that reflect the applicant’s individuality & awareness of the schools’ uniqueness)
-Application Consultation (Development of all parts of applications such as short answer essays, hodge-podge sections, extra-curricular discussions)
-Strategies (Interview Preparation; How to get off the Wait-List; How to indicate First-Choice School; How to Explain a Low Test Score, Low GPA, or Discipline Problem)

About me/Qualifications:
-Former College Counselor at a top-tier private high school
-I graduated from an Ivy League University where I was a Member of the Administration and gained invaluable knowledge of the admissions process.
-Specific Experience with competitive universities. I have numerous contacts/colleagues around the country from whom I have learned useful and unique information.

This does not have to be a stressful process for parents or students!

*References and Resume available upon request.
*I am happy to speak by phone ahead of time to answer questions and/or to see if I am a good fit.

More On Matthew J.T.'s Subjects

career development

I consider myself to be a very thoughtful resource for someone who is thinking about career development. I worked in investment banking at Goldman Sachs for several years and held a leadership position in their recruiting for college seniors and summer interns. I have also worked for the federal government. Additionally, I have significant Board experience in higher education and the non-profit sector. On these Boards I often held positions that oversaw hiring and Human Resources officers. And what is more, I have a good handle on what degrees and prerequisites certain jobs demand...and I understand the stress and difficulty that can surround these decisions. I can help make the job process a bit more fun!
