We had a wonderful experience working with Ivy Experience. Eric is an extremely talented, creative and honest application and essay coach. He was able to help our daughter tremendously with crafting a thoughtful and meaningful common app essay as well as many other supplemental essays. He also kept her on track throughout the summer to complete the majority of work before school and sports started in the fall which relieved a lot of pressure for everyone. Our daughter got accepted to her dream school and we highly recommend partnering with Eric if you are looking for an expert to assist you with the process!

Ivy Experience is a must for any student trying to make themselves stand out among a sea of admission essays from strong applicants. Eric worked with my daughter on both undergraduate and graduate program essays and his guidance was invaluable. He was able to help her maximize her unique attributes and experiences to create an essay that wasn't generic, but a strong representation of her journey, accomplishments and aspirations. Eric not only kept her on track with highly aggressive deadlines for a last minute decision to apply one year early for graduate nursing schools, but she appreciated his calm demeanor and genuinely personable interactions with her. My daughter ended up getting into her top 2 dream nursing programs, and we have no doubt Ivy Experience and Eric had a hand in that! As a parent, it made a otherwise potentially stressful process extremely streamlined and I felt from day one, "Eric's got this. She couldn't be in better hands." I was proved 100% right!

Ivy designed a process to work with my daughter that worked with her learning style and schedule needs. They helped her generate ideas and themes for her common app essay and made great suggestions along the way. They also helped her figure out how to best represent herself on the other parts of the common app. They were responsive and thoughtful throughout.

Thanks to Eric’s support, my daughter approached her applications with confidence and clarity. We are so impressed with the quality of his work that we would definitely want Eric’s guidance again when it’s time for our other children to apply. Highly recommend Ivy Experience and Eric to any family navigating the college admissions journey!

I can’t thank Eric enough for the incredible support and mentorship he provided during my son’s college application journey. He didn’t just guide—he challenged my son to think more deeply, reflect more honestly, and express his ideas in a way that was both authentic and compelling. Eric was more than a counselor—he was a true mentor and an honest critic. His thoughtful feedback and unwavering commitment helped my son produce his best work. Thanks to Eric’s clear structure and firm timelines, my son, who tends to procrastinate, stayed focused and completed multiple drafts of each essay, ultimately gaining admission to his dream Ivy League school. What I appreciated most was Eric’s ability to take on the role of motivator and accountability partner, freeing me from the need to constantly check in. He balanced encouragement with tough love, and it made all the difference.
