The past 3+ months have been a whirlwind filled with anxiety, speculation, and even some soul-searching moments. Then, E received a Dartmouth interview (regular round) which was an indication to us that something in her application had piqued their interest! We knew her application was strong (thanks to you!), yet we had no quantitative evidence to back it. The application review feedback meeting with you and E’s subsequent sessions with R made us aware of just how much we didn’t know. After her initial Ivy deferral, it felt like the process was stacked against us. We are beyond excited to share that she was accepted to Dartmouth in the RD round and to other top institutions like UVA and Bowdoin!Your collective work with E during the holidays to help position her was invaluable. Your deep insights into how admission officers think was reflected in the eloquent essays E wrote and we feel this made all the difference. You were there to answer E’s questions even after the submission process – thank you! It highlights TTA’s character and you showed us you truly care about the student and their future; it’s more than merely providing a service. Sincere thanks to both of you and we hope to work with you again.
