Ivy Central’s Caroline Linger and Jose Kumar are excited to reveal their personalised blueprint, which has led thousands to Ivy League and other top-tier university admission success. The guide has not only set the standard for college counselling excellence but also established the duo as leading college counsellors for students seeking admission into top US universities.
As Ivy League application numbers soar, acceptance rates are dropping into single digits, leaving thousands of students in a race to differentiate themselves. Students and families have turned to independent private counsellors for expert guidance on the increasingly competitive application process. Ivy Central, one of the world’s best-performing college counselling services, stands out for its revolutionary personalised approach that empowers students to achieve their dream of attending top-tier Ivy Leagues and universities like MIT and Stanford. Caroline Linger, the founder and head counsellor, and Jose Kumar, director and lead counsellor, shared that their goal with Ivy Central is to make college counselling accessible to all students.
Over the past decade, Ivy Central has accumulated 159 Ivy League wins, 453 UC wins, and over 2500 US top-tier wins. Linger credited this success to the personalised blueprint developed from their commitment to helping students do things that are unique to them to secure top-tier institutions. Ivy Central provides individualized support in profile building, essay writing, college selection, and scholarship opportunities, ensuring that students are well-prepared for every possible challenge during the application process.
According to Linger, this approach aims to help students uncover their unique strengths, passions, and goals to build standout applications. “Our personalised approach focuses on each student’s individuality and long-term aspirations. We work to create a roadmap that not only showcases achievements but also highlights personal growth and dedication.”
Ivy Central’s tailored approach to college counseling capitalises on one-on-one student-counselor engagements. Kumar states that this ensures that counsellors understand each student’s interests, skills, and values and can, therefore, help them identify activities that align with their future goals. Ivy Central’s counsellors also work closely with the students to sustain engagement in each identified area, translating to compelling narratives that resonate with admissions officers during the application process.
In addition to profile building, Ivy Central’s framework for admission success focuses on essay coaching, which has long been identified as one of the most challenging areas of the process. Ivy Central provides brainstorming sessions that uncover compelling stories and experiences students can use in their essays. Counsellors offer expert feedback and iterative revision sessions to guide students toward creating essays that authentically represent their voices while demonstrating the depth of their character.
Interview preparation is another key aspect of Ivy Central’s approach. Kumar explained that their mock interviews are designed to help students familiarize themselves with the often intimidating college interview settings. During these interviews, counsellors coach students to articulate their thoughts clearly, effectively structure their responses, and build confidence for the real interview experience.
“We believe in empowering students to express themselves clearly and confidently,” said Kumar. “Even as we help them through the college application process, by the end, many become better writers and communicators.”
To further improve admission success, Ivy Central guides students through choosing the right college. Ivy Central’s counsellors leverage their extensive knowledge of the academic and social environments at various institutions to recommend colleges where students will thrive based on the profiles they have built. This selection process also involves providing scholarship guidance to help families secure financial aid, which reduces their financial burden while rewarding academic excellence.
Ivy Central has established itself as a trusted partner for students and families across the globe. Its unmatched success is rooted in the dedication and expertise of its team of counsellors led by Linger and Kumar and its personalized college counselling approach that optimises every aspect of a student’s application. The company has garnered thousands of success stories and testimonials that praise its commitment to making elite education more accessible.
Ivy Central remains the premier choice for families seeking expert college admission guidance. The company recommends that students start preparing for their Ivy League applications as early as 8th or 9th grade to allow enough time for strategic planning and student growth.
