Testimonials

"I was attending Ohio State University when IvyBoost led me to apply to over 10 top colleges in the U.S. and UK for the Master of Finance Program. IvyBoost helped me define my career interest & goal and edit my resume, short essays, and personal statement to make my application worry-free and successful!"

"Thanks to IvyBoost's help, I was accepted by Stanford and the University of Southern California. Now, I am in the Master of Environment Engineering program in Stanford. In the 1 year period of application, IvyBoost helped me know what is my interest and my career direction, helped me discover my advantages and disadvantages, helped me make a reasonable list of institutions, and helped me make sure to complete the application materials on time."
Tan
"I applied for master of engineering. Although I went to a non-selective undergraduate college, I was accepted to Duke, Carnegie Mellon, University of Southern California, UC San Diego, UC Davis, Purdue, George Washington and many other institutions with IvyBoost's counseling service. I am very grateful to Mr. Tang for his guidance this past year!"

"I began to work with IvyBoost in the summer before my senior year in college for my graduate program. It was intense to prepare the GRE test along with my academics. IvyBoost made my research and application to graduate schools much easier and time-saving. I was lucky to be admitted to Cornell, Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania."
