Hi, I’m Raymond Hsu.
I offer one-on-one college admissions consulting that combines close mentorship with a clear, strategic process. Students who work with me enjoy individualized guidance to refine their narratives, strengthen their applications, and approach selective admissions with ease and confidence.
As a Dartmouth graduate with degrees in biology and music, I bring a multidisciplinary perspective to college advising that helps students discover their authentic voice and draft a narrative that is both genuine and compelling. As a medical student, I know what it’s like to work—and excel—in high stakes environments and I strive to give my students the same compassion I give everyone.
100% of my students have been accepted to Top 20 U.S. News & World Report colleges or their first-choice college.
My Approach
Colleges want students who are passionate, motivated, and memorable. I create original tailored ideas for each student, helping them develop experiences and essays that highlight their individuality and make them stand out.
Original ideas
Because I work closely with each student and generate ideas from the ground up, I’m able to offer a level of personalization that isn’t possible in most school counseling offices or high-volume firms.
Mentorship
My success is rooted in mentorship. Through long-term connections, I empower students to grow, discover their passions, and present their most compelling, authentic selves to colleges.
