Tell us about your goals and one of our advisors will reach out.
A consultation is your first chance to discuss your admissions goals with an expert. Here's what to expect:
We evaluate your student's current academic profile, extracurriculars, and overall positioning.
We identify what sets your student apart and what needs work — with a frank analysis of what it will take to reach your target schools.
You'll leave with a clear picture of your admissions roadmap — exactly what to do and when.
We'll walk through 2–3 options tailored to your goals, timeline, and needs.
We’ll reach out to schedule a quick introductory call.
Answers to the questions we hear most often before a first consultation.
The earlier, the better. Ideally, students begin in 9th or 10th grade so we can shape extracurriculars, capstone projects, and summer plans before the application window opens. That said, we work with juniors and seniors on focused essay and strategy support as well.
Yes. Our mentors work with students across the United States and internationally via video. We have in-person options available in New York City, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Westchester, and Scarsdale.
Yes, completely. The initial consultation is a no-commitment conversation with an expert advisor. There's no sales pressure and no obligation to continue after the call.
We offer full admissions counseling, essay coaching, SAT/ACT prep, extracurricular and capstone mentorship, academic tutoring, and graduate admissions support. Most students combine two or more services into a cohesive engagement.
Every Whetstone mentor is a verified alumnus of the world's most selective universities or a top-tier professional. We don't outsource to junior advisors. One mentor works with one student from start to finish — so the person who knows your story is the person helping you tell it.
