    Overview

    Tour Ivy League and top East Coast campuses with guidance from current college students. This immersive experience combines campus visits, admissions insight, and exclusive Q&A sessions with student mentors who share how they got in — and how you can too.

    This unique college tour allows high school students to visit top universities on the U.S. East Coast — including Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Princeton, MIT, and more — while engaging in exclusive sessions with current students who were recently admitted to these schools.

    Participants will gain valuable insight into each campus's culture through guided tours, admissions briefings, and — most importantly — candid Q&A sessions with student mentors. These mentors share real admissions strategies, personal stories, and tips on what truly made their applications stand out.

    The program also includes evening reflections, goal-setting activities, and group discussions to help students process what they’ve learned and apply it to their own college plans. Ideal for students entering Grades 8–11 who want to understand the admissions process from the inside out while experiencing campus life first-hand.
