philosophy

August & Ivy believes that finding the right college for each child is the foundation for developing confident, compassionate, and self-motivated young people who fulfill their potential and better the world.

Attaining admission into the right college requires much more than knowledge of its academic course offerings—it demands a multi-faceted understanding of the culture, history, philosophy and the network of enrichment opportunities that each school offers. It also requires that a careful and rigorous process be followed to give each family the maximum number of options for their child.

We carefully listen to understand the goals of each student and their family. We evaluate each student’s attributes, historical performance, and thoroughly assess their passions and interests. And, we help navigate families and students through the complex admissions process to produce the most competitive and complete application possible.
