Admissions Counseling

Expert Advising by an Educator Who Cares
​

Each student is unique and has his/her own set of experiences, talents, and potential contributions to our society. Their academics and test scores should be accompanied by self-authored essays which tell their individual stories and life ambitions in their own words.

​

If your student can be positioned to be accepted by a top university, I will provide assistance to make it happen. If your student should attend a community college and then transfer, I will help to facilitate a successful process. Many of my former students have transferred to top UC campuses from community colleges. 

​

I will also help your student select a major and understand what it takes to go to professional schools such as medical school, engineering school, business school and law school.

"During a busy and stressful college application process, Tammy was a life-saver for me. I tried many other consultants, but Tammy proved to be exceptional. She guided me through writing a compelling college essay for the Ivy League. My essay vastly improved from my previous draft and thanks to Tammy, I have the confidence that I put my best foot forward. She is very honest, friendly, knowledgeable, and wants the best for her students. I highly recommend her!"

"Tammy Chang is the best writing tutor I have ever met.

Getting into a decent MBA program is tough. It is even harder to get accepted into a top business school. You need an excellent strategy and a long preparation time. Tammy is the best tutor and advisor for this. She gave me many excellent suggestions and pointed me in the right direction during my MBA applications process last year.

Tammy first talked to me as an advisor and almost as a friend and helped me figure out the best school programs based on my educational background, work experience, competitive advantages, and future career plans."

“To say Tammy is amazing is an understatement. I wanted help with my college admission essays and Tammy helped guide my thinking perfectly. Her strategy to helping students with essays is amazing. She had me list my volunteer work, strengths, and passions to incorporate them into a well written essay. Tammy and I clicked immediately from the first session. She encourages creative thinking and built my confidence.”
