Authentic Stories, Authentic success

Learn about how our students have achieved long-term fulfillment and career success by staying true to themselves.

"Feiyang really took the time to listen to our daughter. Instead of dictating to her what he thought she should do, he carefully and meticulously took time to understand her as not just a student/candidate but as a person and individual which made her feel more comfortable and in control of a very important process. If you’re the type of parent that wants your kid to end up at the perfect school for them with some help to “stand up straighter" and bring out more of what they already have (rather than changing who they are), then go with Feiyang! Through her work with Feiyang, our kid became wiser and more confident and more comfortable (with herself)."

"I think authenticity was really important as a driver to working with Feiyang, because instead of trying to come up with something that we felt like would be good for our college application, we were kind of starting with experiences and messages that felt true to who I was. I knew some girls at my school, just by the nature of the school I go to (The Archer School for Girls), who had their own counselors, and it was always so interesting, because for them, it always felt so much more regimented. I felt like they were trying to fit themselves into boxes that their counselors created for them. Feiyang's approach as a counselor just never felt like that to me. I never thought the college process would be enjoyable for me, but honestly, it really was. This college admissions process has strengthened me and my confidence in myself."

"We heard about Feiyang's service almost 2-3 days prior to the ED deadline. But his great comments and powerful essay editing really helped us understand what should be the right strategy for essays. My son's essays are much better than the version already approved from our contracted college counselor."

"Feiyang was so hands-on, so accessible. He was always there for our student when she needed him with patience and true care. She is generally self-motivated, but with Feiyang's added help, we were totally hands off! We didn't have to monitor one deadline or proofread anything - super easy and seamless."

Founder & Lead College Coach
Feiyang Liu
Having worked in UC Berkeley admissions, I've evaluated thousands of first-year applications and seen what stories stand out among the crowd, and that's a personal, cohesive, and authentic application narrative. With a Master of Education from USC, I transform each student's application into an opportunity to stop college pleasing, which leads to generic applications, and showcase their authenticity to admission officers.
