Summer Applications

Competitive summer programs often offer students a chance to deepen their skills and knowledge, giving them a head start in their field of interest. These programs can also help students stand out to college admissions readers by demonstrating their commitment and initiative! However, the application process can be highly selective, requiring careful planning, strong recommendations, and tailored essays. Success Koach offers personalized summer applications advising to guide students through the process and increase their chances of admission to top programs.

​

We have helped students successfully matriculate to competitive programs including:

Creative Working

Picking the Right Programs

Our experienced mentors work closely with students and their families to identify summer programs that align with their academic interests, career aspirations, and personal goals. From geographic preferences to scheduling around existing summer commitments, we take a comprehensive approach to the summer search.

​

We also maintain an internal database of the most competitive summer programs per each subject area; whether a student is an aspiring engineer or a young entrepreneur, we know which programs will give them the most valuable boost in their field of interest.

Application Support

Our mentors provide personalized assistance in crafting essays that capture each student’s unique voice, experiences, and ambitions, helping students stand out to program admissions teams. We also help strategize with students on other aspects of the admissions process, including whom to ask for recommendations, how to prepare for interviews, and more.

​

To keep students on track, we also provide organizational support and reminders for tracking application deadlines. 

Research Mentorship

Chemistry Class

One of Success Koach's most unique offerings is our research mentorship program. Many students don't have the opportunity to do original research until well into college; most students wouldn't even know where to start. We have mentors across numerous disciplines who can help students pursue approachable beginner research work. Whether that project is a policy paper or a regression analysis, we aim to build out students' research skills and help them produce tangible work that can help open doors for college admissions, internships, or further opportunities in academia. 

​

Summer is a critical time for research work, as it allows students a rare uninterrupted block of time to pursue research—either under the mentorship of one of our research advisors, or through a competitive summer research incubator. Whatever your preference or your vocation, we're here to help you find the right fit.

Students Between Classes

Beyond everything else that our students are up to this summer, we also offer tailored programming to help students get an edge in highly-competitive extracurriculars like model UN, speech & debate, and mock trial. These activities stand out to colleges, but can also be intimidating for a newcomer; our experienced mentors bring years of know-how to the table to help you succeed.​
