The college process is a lot.
You don't have to figure it out alone.

Most families come to me saying the same thing: they don't know where to start, the process looks nothing like it did when they applied, and their kid isn't exactly eager to hear their input on any of it.

That's where I come in.

I'm Natasha de Sherbinin. I've spent 15 years on both sides of the admissions desk, as a high school counselor and as a reader in a selective college admissions office. I know what makes an application memorable because I've read thousands of them. I take on 10 students per graduating class, intentionally, because that's what it takes to do this well and because every family deserves to actually work with the person they hired.

The internet will give you a thousand opinions about college admissions. I'll give you a plan.

Natasha was integral to my college acceptance. Before I began working with her, I did not have a clue where I wanted to apply to college or the necessary steps to get me there. Not only did she motivate and advise me through the entire process of completing a great application profile, but she became a mentor, friend, and source of advice for anything I needed during this time. I’ve never met a person so passionate about helping students achieve their goals as Natasha is, and I will never forget the things she's done to help my family. I wouldn't have achieved my college acceptance and scholarship without her support.
