Comprehensive Portfolio Program
Positioned for the top 1% of applicants with an Ivy League-level profile. Most students have top grades but lack the narrative and personal brand that makes them stand out. We guide your research profile development, IP development support with patent applications, founder-level project development with concrete deliverables, and personal narrative crafting—all for a fraction of what college consulting agencies charge.
- All core Fellowship components (research, publication, science fair awards)
- Patent applications and intellectual property development
- Founder-level titles and organization leadership positioning
- Personal narrative and brand development (essays, profiles, portfolio)
- Strategic project planning and launch roadmap
- Institutional positioning and application strategy
- Network development and recommendation pathways
The complete package to position you as the most competitive version of yourself. Most college consulting agencies charge $15K+ for just essay editing. We guide the entire profile transformation with concrete deliverables.
