Trusted by parents. Loved by students.
“Joel helped me with my Personal Profile for my application for UBC Sauder. He knows what he's doing.
Without his help, I would have been very stressed about my personal profile since it was so essential to my acceptance at UBC and it wouldn't have turned out half as good. I would recommend him to anyone applying to UBC Sauder.”
“Working with Joel has been a pleasure. He offers a creative, academic and persuasive writing style. Through phone calls, he has helped me put my thoughts into words and place information through my essays to optimize my chances of acceptance.
And through about two months of working together, Joel’s helped me with multiple applications to which I'm submitting very confidently. I'd recommend this program for any student applying to university.”
“As parents, we were really impressed with Joel's service when he helped our son navigate his way through the overwhelming university application process…
All I can say is after the first conversation with Joel we had a huge sigh of relief. His knowledge is current relevant. He demystified the process and it was a true pleasure dealing with such a professional. I highly recommend Joel service to any applicant on their journey through the university application process.”
“During Joel's process, it was thorough, detailed, organized, never rushed and it was clear he wanted me to create the best possible product to my applications. I looked forward to the sessions and I feel I completed all of the steps in the application with quality and focus.
Joel has an excellent process and approach to his client's applications starting with discovering his client’s personalities through professional surveys, step-by-step essay completion, and his advice towards his clients when they're working with their personal achievements.”
