🎓 The ivy Cohort
Learn how to get admission to your dream university and transform it into a lifelong success
with better job or Entrepreneurial opportunities, without leaving your school or college studies 😉
⚗️The Secret to ivy league admissions
Over the past 11 years, I’ve learned a lot about what it takes to build a winning application from scratch, create a stellar profile, and attract the admission officers to get an offer letter. I’ve spent over $50,000 in courses and coaching programs to try and find the secret sauce that helps students to get admission to top schools. And you know what? There’s no secret. It’s mostly just a matter of —
- Selecting the Right Fit Universities
- Bringing your true essence in the essays and LORs
- Creating a Winning application that admission officers feel worthy of admission
That’s all it takes. I can guarantee that if you follow this simple, 3-part formula, your life will change in ways you can’t imagine. For a start, you’ll learn incredibly useful life skills while working on your application, you’ll become College Ready, and you’ll head start your life very early to achieve great success & satisfaction. 😊But sadly, as with all things, getting started and maintaining quality + consistency is easier said than done.
🎯 The Challenges of Applying to Colleges
- The process can be very overwhelming. You won't know where to begin and how to pace your applications.
- You have extremely limited time. With high demanding school or college workload, You will struggle to manage applications with school/college work.
- Because of that, you'll take on any advise you get, high test scores, community service, summer schools, without thinking whether it is relevant for your applications or not.
- You’ll have to get over the fear of judgment from friends, family and distant relatives regarding your choice of major and college.
- You’ll have to figure out what you’re going to write in your essay, and why admission officers would care what you’ve got to say.
- You’ll need to learn about yourself, your story, profile, essays, LORs, documentation.
- You’ll worry that you’re NOT going to get admission to good universities.
- You’ll be constantly thinking about your Friend or relative, who got admission to your dream school or is applying to same schools, while simultaneously trying to copy her.
- You’ll end up applying EXACTLY like 99% of all other applicants, hoping admission officer will notice your profile and offer you an admission negotiating with brands.
And you’ll have to do all this (and a lot more) while juggling your school, studies, relationships and health, while also doing your best to enjoy the journey and avoid burnout.
This is hard. It takes a lot of work. But it’s also really fun, and if you can make it work, it’s genuinely life-changing. Yes, College Admission process is genuinely life-changing.
If there's one at all, the real "secret" is that you want to build a SYSTEM around your applications, so that you can efficiently write amazing essays that attracts admission officers, without it taking up large amounts of your own time. Instead of thinking of your College Application as a personal project, you want to think about it like a machine. A machine that takes inputs in the form of ideas, refines them into valuable content that your admission officers loves, and efficiently produces college offer letters.
I’ve built such a system for my students, and I can help you build yours.

What's in the Course?
There's a large amount of stuff in the course. I promise you'll have a great time of it. Here's a quick summary.
📘 1. Core Course Modules
By the end of the course, you’ll have your applications ready, finalized college list, winning essays, well crafted LORs, without burning out. Through our core live lectures (Fridays at 18:00) we'll cover —
🧬 Build — Creating the Mindset of a Successful Applicant, nailing down your college list, building your profile, getting comfortable with essays, minimising friction in writing essays and creating a strong resume. If you're a newbie for College Applications, these sessions will be perfect for you. Even if you're not, you'll absolutely learn lots of useful things (we've had students with complete knowledge of college applications who loved these sessions).
💡 Conceive — How to create your Irresistible Story. We'll help you build your own Central message, using our 5-part framework for capturing your experiences and systematically generating your UNIQUE story from it. And we'll talk about best practises for getting scholarships, arguably one of the most important aspect of a successful College Admission.
✍️ Create — How to structure your essays in a way that appeals to college admission officers. How to create a Final College list and use your Master Profile to create your unique activity list, so you're never stressed at the time of application. And how to efficiently craft and get your LORs from different recommenders to maximise your college admission outcome. We'll talk about the power of LORs, and the different types of Supplement Essays and how to write hooking essays to make you application stand out.

⏰ Live Session Timings
We'll have 1 live sessions each week for 17 weeks. They'll be on Fridays, 1800 - 2000 IST. Each session will have 60-90 mins of core teaching and interactive exercises, followed by an open Q&A. If you can't make the live sessions, don't worry - we'll upload the Zoom recording within 1h of the session ending, and we'll have a nicely edited video with timestamps ready within 24h of the session.
🎬 2. Homework Video Assignments
The Homework Video Assignments are the single most important part of the course.
If you can't (or won't) commit to your own future and college admission, this course isn't for you. You won't get much value out of it. It would be like signing up for a gym class, showing up to watch the tutorial, and not doing any exercise. It might be interesting, but it wouldn't get you any results.
You can't get college admission without consistently writing essays or creating your story, at least once a week. Yes, there are exceptions, but in general, you need to write and create at least once a week to stand a chance of standing out.
Each week, we'll give you an assignment, which will involve ideating, researching, writing, creating, and applying for college admission. For writing essays and other content, when you're done, you'll link your essay on our community platform, and other students (and members of our team) will give you feedback.
👨👧👦 3. Community + Support + Accountability
Remember how I said that consistently working on college application each week is how you get admission to great colleges? Well, this becomes much easier when you've got a community of friends, colleagues and supporters all doing the same thing and cheering each other on.
🤝 1. Peer Support Sessions
Each week, we'll have 2 Peer Support sessions. These are optional, and you can attend as many or as few as you like. They're run by students who are enrolled with your cohort and have advance knowledge about college admission process or who have a flair for writing.
The Peer Support sessions are a great place to connect with a smaller group of people, share your challenges and get advice from others along the same journey.
⚡️ 2. Group Coworking Sessions
When it comes to being successful in College Admission Journey, making the time to consistently work on applications is probably the hardest thing, especially when you have a lot to do at school or college. We've got 2 optional group coworking sessions that you can attend as seldom or as often as you like.
Firstly, twice a week, we run a Power Hour from 4-5pm IST on Monday and Thursday. This is a nice coworking session where we get together on a zoom call, play some instrumental music, and everyone gets some work done. Most of our students work on application-related things during that time. Secondly, twice a week we run Homework Club (Tuesdays 4-6pm IST and Saturday 11-1pm IST). This is a 2-hour session where we all spend 60 minutes writing our essays, 30 minutes editing, and 30 minutes enhancing.
The coworking sessions are a great way to connect with other students on the course, and to remotely work together, to make pandemic life and College Admission life a little less lonely than it can otherwise be.
🙋♂️ 3. Community Support + Q&A
In each of the 18 Zoom calls (once a week), there’ll be ample opportunity to ask me any and all questions you need to. On top of that, you’ll have lifetime access to our Support Community where you can ask and answer questions with me, my team and the other students.
Premium and Exclusive edition students will also get priority access throughout the course (and beyond), so you’ll have our expertise on-tap should you need it, using our special Application portal Applix. Exclusive edition students also get Whatsapp support from my team as well.

❌ Who's the Course NOT for?
This course isn't for you if...
- You're not willing to put in the time and effort to attend 1 session per week for the coaching and homework assignments.
- You're looking for a magic bullet that'll create your application without any effort. There's no secret here. It's just about putting in the work, doing it consistently, and stacking the deck in your favour in whatever way you can.
- You're hoping that applying to college can be done by other people. Again, that's not how it works. There are no shortcuts, you must put in the hours (only 2-3 hours a week can get you your Dream college admit)
- You're looking for a guaranteed path to admission. There are no guarantees in this game. That's not how it works. There are a huge number of factors that go into whether something will be numerically 'successful'. We'll do our best to teach you the systems and processes that have worked for us and our students, but we can't 'guarantee' any specific result in Essential edition. We do have 100% admission rate in the last 11 years and that guidance is available in our Premium and Exclusive edition.
Having said all that, one thing we can guarantee is that if you work on your applications, create your story, write your essays and apply to colleges, your life will change. We guarantee that you'll learn useful skills, you'll generate 'confidence', and you'll make friends with amazing peers through ivy cohort. You might even get messages from your juniors, the following years, for your guidance on their college admission journey and of course from me to be our Alumni Mentor 😀.
Our only objective on this course, is to make it easier for you to maintain that level of consistency for Massive College Admission Success. If that sounds like something you'd like, we'd love to have you. If it's not what you're looking for, then sorry for wasting your time in reading this far, and we wish you the very best of luck. Regardless, feel free to email us if you need a hand with anything 😃
