Shemmassian Academic Consulting

Helping You Get Into the College of Your Choice. Helping You Pay for It. There's a science and art to writing great admissions essays and preparing standout applications. Mastering both allowed me to gain admissions to an Ivy League school and the top graduate program in my field, and also to receive enough scholarships and fellowships to graduate from both debt-free. I have extensive experience holistically evaluating students' achievements and goals to develop "fit" with various schools and scholarships. I have also served as a Cornell University admissions interviewer. My goal is to increase your chances of getting into your top-choice school by helping you integrate various aspects of your applications that are in your control (e.g., personal statements, extracurricular activities, etc.) to effectively present yourself. In addition to providing premium 1-on-1 services, I offer community seminars and some of the best free material on preparing college, graduate school, and scholarship applications. Moreover, I profile high-achieving and brilliant individuals through my popular Academic Success Story series to give you fresh perspectives on the academic world and various careers, and to help you and your family make better educational decisions. You can receive my free material as soon as it's released by subscribing on my website. I encourage you to send questions about any aspect of higher education admissions. I read and respond to every message within 24 hours. As I have helped other applicants, I'm here to help you (or your child) get into the college of your choice and pay for it.
