The personality oriented strategist/student makes a complete difference. My strategist and I are incredibly compatible and they helped me overcome some challenges that they faced as well. I think my application will turn out great thanks to crimson vast resources and an experienced team.

Crimson has been allowing me to properly prepare for university in a meaningful and proper manner. They give some of the top most quality education and it is fantastic to work with them.

It’s been great working with Crimson to help me narrow down and go through the college preparation. They help me lots in terms of preparing my application strategically. This is trustable company and community to work with.

Amazing Service. What I expected and very qualified individuals. I suggest getting in early as the earlier you are the better opportunity you have. Their hub is always updating and improving.

Crimson has been very helpful in guiding me through my College Applications. All my mentors and strategists were detail-oriented and incredibly knowledgeable about the application process. They provided invaluable advice on writing essays and refining my application materials, like extracurricular activities and curating school lists. The personalized approach and dedication of Crimson's team really eased my stress during the time. My mentors went out of their ways to help me with my emotions and made a genuine effort to get to know me and my dreams. I really can’t recommend Crimson enough :)!!!

I have been using Crimson and have been consistently seeing progress in my learning. Their meetings are always high quality and they are able to provide me with feedback that grows me as a person. Their services give me confidence in applying to my dream universities.

Crimson allowed me to maximise my UCAS application as an international student. Without their help, I would have not known where to start and build a successful application. Their guidance and assistance has been immense and imperative to my success.

The Crimson’s team was extremely dedicated to supporting and helping to get into all the colleges that I wanted. Besides helping me with sorting out my extra curricular, they gave me a-lot of guidance to further improve my CV as well as gaining a lot of experiences and skills that greatly benefited me in college.As a result of their dedication, I was able to get into my dream school with a scholarship.

Crimson Education's team and consultant experience opens yourself to so many opportunities, knowledge, and connections. They provide assistance and aid in building an academic plan and helping you achieve whatever goals an individual may have. They offer consultations, social events, extra-curriculars, etc. and help you excel in any academic agenda you may have! I've been with them and CGA for almost over a year and it has been nothing but an enjoyable and beneficial experience. I joined their Summer Camp in 2023 where I learned, connected, and made memories with other students and the lovely hardworking staff members at Crimson Education, they're a student's best friend!

As an international student applying to the US, Crimson helped me immensely. The most helpful aspect was the essay reviews. My meetings with my essay mentor were not only useful for editing and refining my essays, but his input also inspired me and gave me new ideas. I did not use the financial aid mentoring hours just because the process is a lot more straightforward for international students, but as for filling out the common app, activity list, and essays, Crimson provided excellent support.

At Crimson they adapt to the needs of each student since they know that not everyone wants to do the same. They ensure that each student achieves what they want, and design a program that is attractive and interesting to the person. Crimson also puts at your disposal several resources in the form of documents that have already been successful in the past and invites you to carry out projects that improve your profile.

Crimson was an essential part of my application path. It brought me security, help and knowledge that was the biggest part of this journey. Being the EU or USA mentors, every single person I have come across through Crimson has been the best. I have nothing but thankfulness for the work they do and would recommend it to anyone.

From the initial meeting we have been so impressed. The processes are very slick and communication to both parents and students is flawless. We are really enjoying the service and are looking forward to seeing where our son ends up and how his athletic career progresses

They’re helping me get into my dream university in the UK and Europe, something that I never thought was possible. My team is very attentive and has a good attitude, always.

So far, Crimson Education has helped me build an appealing curriculum for upcoming applications while guiding me in the right direction. The SAT sessions are useful in developing my skills in math and critical reading overall. My meetings with my strategist helped me decide on my major and the universities I would apply to. If you are a high school student, Crimson can be very useful if you want to study abroad and plan your future.

If ever at all, you may be struggling or want to find new opportunities, Crimson is an excellent organization that will help you out. From the time I already spent in Crimson, the strategists are kind and thoughtful when counseling, and their advice is highly valuable. There are also countless resources on Crimson to utilize, and it's a great way to network with others!

I used Crimson’s services to help me with my UK university applications in 2019 and their variety of service offerings and quality of mentors were very good. Their services were well structured and delivered. I interacted with many people with excellent profiles and learnt a lot in a little over a year’s time. I was even enlightened on career prospects.

I am a Crimson Access Opportunity student. If it weren't for Crimson's help with my application, I don't think I would be able to send out as strong of an application. My strategist, app mentor, and financial aid mentor guided me through the process, sharing insights and precious advice. I am still working on my applications and I sent one of them. I am hoping to receive some great news. I am thrilled to be working with Crimson!

I’m in my first year at Crimson, and I have thoroughly enjoyed every Minute of it. Crimson Education is the perfect solution to any student with worries about their future. In my first year I have learnt so many new skills. I couldn’t make any stronger suggestion of an organisation that is tailored to your needs and provides personal and helpful advice towards providing you a better future. I am truly thankful for Crimson and I would strongly suggest that if you want to invest in your future, invest in Crimson.

I got in touch with Crimson in the beginning of my sophomore year. I have received incredible service from Crimson. By joining the Crimson community, a vast amount of resources were made available to me. My extracurricular mentor was extremely knowledgeable about the field I want to major in and recommended valuable activities that can help build my experience and my resume. My strategist would check in with me on a monthly basis to make sure that I was on track to getting into my dream schools. There were so many helpful people on the team, including a former admissions officer who assessed my profile and gave constructive feedbacks and tutors and mentors who helped with school classes or summer applications, and many many more. With Crimson, I got to learn more about the college application process and how to maximize my chances of getting in, and I was exposed to a lot more opportunities than I was before because of the huge network and connections Crimson has established.

Crimson employees are definitely the most caring and talented college counselors I have ever interacted with. They help you with the entire process - from choosing colleges to essays to extracurricular mentoring. The packages are all customized to cater to one's needs and the services are individualized to help a student with their particular journey. I've had an overall positive experience interacting with these people and have seen them help enhance their students' profile and get them into their dream schools!!

Crimson Education was an incredible resource in ensuring my applications to my top colleges were successful. The kind mentors and tutors always worked hard to help me strengthen each part of my application. The constant coordination and quick communication made the entire application simple and enjoyable. I highly recommend Crimson Education to any student who willing to work hard and wishes to pursue admission at their top university.

Crimson really helped me get where I am today. In terms of subject selection, optimizing extracurricular/ leadership opportunities throughout high school and standardized test prep (ACT/SAT) their specialized programs really aided with the lengthy college application process.

Current student of Crimson. Before joining Crimson, I thought I had the tools to get into my dream schools (Ivy-League, Top 20s), yet looking back now, there was an infinitesimally small chance of that happening without Crimson. They guided me through my extracurriculars, my essays, my testing, and my college lists. Without exaggeration, they were invaluable to me. I can confidently say that I will be able to attend my dream school because of their services, and highly recommend Crimson to any prospective student looking for a shot at a top college, merit scholarships, or summer programs.

As a student of Crimson Education, I highly recommend them if you feel like you need to boost your college application and are not well informed of what the process of applying is like. As someone who falls in this category, they have been so helpful. They carefully match mentors to your personality who support you every step of the way, ranging from SAT Prep to helping me build my own website. They always answer quickly and efficiently, making your application shine in every aspect, inside and outside of school. I highly recommend Crimson to anyone who needs some guidance to the process of entry into top tier schools!

Crimson's college admissions counseling covers every aspect of the college admissions process and provides a full support package that makes you feel ready to tackle college admissions. Notably, the extracurricular advice is top-notch and extremely helpful. I would recommend this service to anybody.

I was getting ready to apply to 15 schools, but applied to Dartmouth early and got in thanks to my Crimson team. They encouraged me to build a leadership project in my community, and I started a scholarship program for students in my high school; we raised lots of money for all honor role students and the program will continue forever. The Crimson team made sure I was totally prepared for my application and their help with my common app essays made me a way stronger ED candidate.

The network of mentors and consultants is just incredible - the team managed to get me someone doing Computer Science at MIT and Economics at Wharton within a day!! The advice is on point and the service is great - highly recommended.

It was entirely by chance that I stumbled upon Crimson Education almost three years ago. The culture in my high school in New Zealand was one in which everyone went to the local university. After discovering Crimson Education, my eyes were really opened to all of the opportunities that were actually available, both in America and around the world. After guiding me through an intensive leadership development program and SAT tutoring, I ended up getting into NYU Stern. I'm incredibly happy with this result and absolutely love the student experience at Stern (despite currently being in a bit of a time crunch for finals).I think the best result hasn't necessarily been getting into my dream school but instead, it's been the steep learning curve and personal development that I experienced while in the Crimson leadership and tutoring program.I have to say that I really don't think I would have been able to get here without Crimson and I'd absolutely recommend this company to anyone who is looking to push themselves, discover their potential, and find a great family of mentors.

Crimson unlocked the doors to Harvard, Stanford and the Robertson Scholarship to Duke University. I was looking for full financial aid or a full scholarship to a US university, which meant targetting universities with acceptance rates of as low as 5%. Furthermore, I am from an area with very limited support for US applications - no one from my school had ever applied for university in the US. These things combined, I knew that I needed support from mentors at Crimson to be a seriously competitive applicant. This was absolutely confirmed during the application process.I came to Crimson late in the year so unfortunately didn't have an opportunity to receive career or extracurricular guidance, but I worked with two Harvard students to establish my school list, understand and edit my essays and prepare for the interviews, as well as perfecting every aspect of my Common App. It was inspirational to work with such ambitious students that were rooting for me throughout the application cycle.One example of the support was that my school reports had been released during the week of the application submission. My teacher couldn't upload my school report because the file was too big (the Common Application portal is a notoriously difficult experience) so my app consultant and I frantically found a way to add the document: I ended up printing it, scanning it, and then sending it to the teacher to upload. It was very stressful at the time because the report is a crucial element, so the support was great to have.I can't be thankful enough for Crimson helping me navigate such a life-changing journey. I have kept my relationships with the mentors I worked with, I learned an immense amount about myself during my Common App process and receive great university offers. Since working with Crimson I've never looked back.
