Project Overview

Strategy-first.
Results-driven.

T10 Advantage is a college consulting initiative I founded to help high-achieving students navigate the increasingly competitive landscape of elite college admissions.

The approach centers on three things: clear frameworks, personalized strategy, and measurable outcomes. No generic advice — just structured guidance tailored to each student's goals, strengths, and target schools.

Approach

Built on three pillars.

01

Clarity

Cut through the noise. Students get a clear picture of where they stand, what matters, and exactly what to do next — no vague advice, no confusion.

02

Strategy

Every student is different. Frameworks for school list building, essay positioning, test prep, and extracurricular narrative are tailored individually — not templated.

03

Outcomes

Results matter. The goal isn't just better essays — it's better decisions that lead to stronger applications and, ultimately, admission to the right schools.

Objectives

Why I built it.

  • Provide clear, high-impact guidance for competitive college applications — filling the gap between generic counseling and real strategic depth.
  • Help students improve standardized test scores and overall positioning through structured, accountable prep frameworks.
  • Build a consulting practice grounded in personalization — treating each student's profile as a unique case, not a checklist.

Outcomes

What it produced.

  • Established core frameworks for SAT/ACT prep and application strategy that are repeatable, structured, and student-tested.
  • Acquired early clients through strategic positioning and referrals, validating demand for the approach.
  • Launched a live public-facing website at t10advantage.org to establish credibility and reach new students.
