Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. This Chinese saying really reflect my son’s journey working with My Ingenious since grade 9, we are very impressed with their professionalism! The consultant Karen is extremely supportive to Karl which almost becoming his 2nd 🧑 who deeply care and challenges Karl to become his best of himself, we all very trust her and Nam’s opinions whenever we facing challenge situations we can depend on their experiences to guild, coaching and mentoring Karl. For us Ingenius role is not only support Karl go his university application but more a powerful supporting team behind him which make him grow step by step. As parents we witness Karl’s growth, we appreciate we have being working with Karen together with the whole ingenius team in the past almost 4 years! By today Karl has received his dream school offer from the university and I am fully confident that Karl has been fully prepared for his university life.

Staffs at InGenius have been very helpful and responsive, with up-to-date application information and process, professional services, we highly recommend if you have children who are planning to apply for US colleges.

InGenius was invaluable to helping my child get into her dream school. Her GC Shuyuan especially helped in keeping her accountable. Shuyuan was well-organized, knowledgeable, and always available to answer questions, even at the most unconventional hours. We were very impressed by her work ethic and communication skills. We think InGenius is very lucky to have a top talent like Shuyuan. We could not thank her and the whole counseling team enough!

My application Counselor, Natalia, provided me with invaluable insights and read (dozens of) my supplemental essay drafts, providing thoughtful feedback. Her empathy and vast knowledge of the application process were an incredible support that I would wish for any student.

Mayank was great, and so was rich in terms of helping out with everything! going above and beyond.

InGenius DC Area Office Director Crystal Wang brought me to InGenius. At that time, my friend also introduced me to another organization which helped her son get into a top Ivy League School. However, Crystal’s presentation about InGenius is so impressive. First, Crystal showed me great records of InGenius and there are so many students went into Ivy League schools. Second, Crystal mentioned that they have a number of former admission officers who know what the admission office looks at. Third, Crystal showed us the research programs InGenius provides. Fourth, Crystal mentioned that students directly interact with former admission officer and graduate coach, they not only help students prepare for college application, but also trains students how to interact with others via the whole process which is very necessary for both college application and future social life. Fifth,Crystal told us that progress manager coordinates the students with former admission officer and graduate coach and updates parents each step of the process. Furthermore, Crystal is so considerate and so responsive and resolved all my concerns and needs. I am a good lawyer and I am very picky, but I am very satisfied with Crystal and decided to engage InGenius to help my son with his college application. Crystal tried her best to get me the best team possible to help my son. Yutong Duan is the best progress manager we could ever have. She is not only very diligent to perform her regular responsibilities, but also went out of her way to provide extremely valuable suggestions to us which is very important for my son’s college application. Thank you so much, Crystal, Yutong, former admission officer and graduate coaches, for your help to my son for his admission to a top Ivy League School. Great team, excellent people and great results! We love InGenius!

Big thanks to my daughter's InGenius team! With the guidance and support of Priscilla, Adriana and Junnia, my daughter got into her dream school. As my daughter described it, their advice definitely helped her present herself at her best. She made the right choices through her application journey. I would strongly recommend InGenius Prep to families looking to elevate their kids' educational journey.

Working with my team at InGenius Prep, Zach Sweeney (Graduate Coach), Wes Mills (FAO), and Zak Harris, has been one of the most impactful parts of my entire college application journey. Their guidance, honesty, and belief in what I’m building with Black Boys Fence pushed me to think bigger, write with more intention, and trust my own voice. That level of mentorship made all the difference. InGenius Prep excels at pairing students with coaches who genuinely invest in their growth. My team didn’t just edit my essays, they helped me understand how to tell my story with clarity and purpose. They challenged me when I needed it, supported me through stressful moments, and consistently showed up with thoughtful, actionable feedback. That combination of high expectations and real care is rare, and it’s what made my experience great. As I look ahead to Columbia, I’m still processing everything, but I couldn’t be happier. I’m excited for the rigorous learning environment, the chance to grow, and the opportunity to keep expanding the mission we talked about so much. The advice I received about saying “yes” to opportunities and staying grounded in where I come from is something I’ll carry with me. Overall, InGenius Prep is doing an exceptional job at providing personalized, mission‑aligned mentorship that helps students find their voice and navigate an overwhelming process with confidence. I’m deeply grateful for the support, and I’m proud of the work we did together. Sincerely, Scott Holliday Columbia University Class of 2030 InGenius Prep Alumni :-)
