Elite University Application Coaching

Applying to an elite university is more than filling out forms — it’s an intellectual journey.
Top-tier programmes such as those at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, or Yale don’t just assess grades. They look for clarity of purpose, academic maturity, and intellectual vision.

Having lived this journey myself, I know that the path to admission can feel overwhelming. Yet it is entirely bridgeable with the right structure, insight, and support.

I deeply believe in this dream. Studying at a world-class university is not just about prestige — it transforms how you think, opens doors, and surrounds you with people who challenge and inspire. Once you’re in, the world truly opens before you.

I help you present not just your achievements — but your academic story. Together, we turn ambition into a clear, compelling, and authentic application.

  • Profile Strategy & Positioning
    Before writing, we define your unique academic narrative: why this field, why this institution, why now? We build a through-line that connects your background, interests, and goals.

    Statement of Purpose & Personal Statement
    We craft essays that reflect depth and coherence — moving beyond achievements to reveal intellectual character. Every sentence will serve a purpose.

    Research Proposal & Writing Sample
    For research-based programmes, I help you design a proposal that is rigorous, relevant, and original — grounded in literature, but guided by your own ideas.

    CV & Academic Presentation
    Your academic CV becomes a narrative of depth — showing initiative, curiosity, and the potential to contribute.

    Interview Coaching
    Through mock sessions, you’ll learn to think aloud, stay composed, and reason with clarity — skills that elite interviews truly test.

    Programme Selection & Timeline Planning
    We align choices, funding options, and deadlines into a realistic roadmap.

  • • Bachelor’s and Master’s students aiming for top Master’s, MPhil or PhD programmes.
    • Professionals returning to academia.

  • At Oxford, I learned that excellence in admissions is not about perfection — it’s about coherence.
    Elite universities seek applicants who understand their trajectory and can articulate it with clarity.

    I combine insider academic insight, high-level writing mentorship, and strategic coaching. Each session is personalised — whether you need full trajectory support or focused feedback on a single component.

  • Format: Online (Zoom) or in person (The Hague / Leiden region).
    Rates: Starting at €95/hour — packages available (5–10 sessions or full support).
    Duration: Typically 4–8 sessions depending on your stage.

  • Elite universities don’t seek finished products — they seek those who think deeply, reflect honestly, and grow with purpose.
