Q & A
Frequently Asked Questions
The questions parents ask us most — start here
✦ ✦ ✦
When should my child start preparing for U.S. college applications?
Starting systematic planning in Grade 9 gives the most breathing room: the early years focus on GPA, course selection and activities, while school selection and essays begin in the second half of Grade 11. If you start later, we reprioritize around the remaining time and concentrate effort where it matters most.
Who writes the essays? Can we see and revise them?
Essays are written by our U.S.-based essay team, while your delivery advisor organizes materials, runs brainstorming sessions and coordinates revisions. Parents and students see every draft and can request changes; nothing is finalized without the student's approval.
How do you guarantee admission results?
We never promise admission to any school — such guarantees are not consistent with professional standards. What we do commit to: a school list both sides confirm and understand, original and authentic essays, a named owner for every deadline, and full progress visibility for parents. We maximize outcomes through process quality.
How are fees structured?
Fees are charged per service package. The contract states the total amount and payment milestones (deposit, second installment, final payment) with transparent pricing and no hidden charges. Exact quotes depend on the student's grade and chosen services — please contact us to discuss.
Can you support families outside Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou?
Yes. We provide online consulting and remote delivery, and we maintain offices in New York and Silicon Valley. Many overseas Chinese families and families in other Chinese cities complete the entire process online.
