check out the ivyO Workshops

To ensure that your application journey is as stress-free as possible for you and your family, ivyO offers two optional Workshops to complement your Strategic Consultation — ivyO BaseCamp and ivyO Compass:

ivyO BaseCamp is where Strategy Implementation and Strategy Execution take place. At BaseCamp, your dedicated college admissions consultant will help you put your strategic plan into action, and provide guidance on specific matters or issues that are important to you.

The ivyO BaseCamp is designed to further empower you during your application journey to highly selective universities and colleges like the Ivy League, Oxford and Cambridge.

ivyO Compass is not for everyone; it is a language-support option designed to help parents, whose English skills are not strong, understand and navigate the US, UK or Australian university admissions processes. The ivyO Compass is conducted in Putonghua or Cantonese.

And know this — with both ivyO BaseCamp and ivyO Compass, you only pay as you go for services you actually need. Nothing more. And there is no long-term contract to worry about. Isn't that good?

The ivyO Difference

Here at ivyO, we come to work everyday with a single focus — to help students just like you identify, apply, and gain admission to their dream university. That may be an Ivy League school; a similarly prestigious institution like Stanford, MIT, Duke, Oxford, Cambridge, or a top Australian university.

ivyO stands out because of its fair and affordable fee structure, as well as its powerful and innovative service offerings, spearheaded by the ivyO Strategic Consultation. Your college admissions journey will be much easier and more successful due to the ivyO Difference, which is encapsulated by the 4 C's:

Competence

At ivyO, only qualified university admissions experts work with our students and their parents. Undergraduate students among our staff are not involved in consultations with families.

Cost

Parents beware: Don't fall victim to unscrupulous operators who try to lock you into draconian contracts costing tens of thousands of dollars. At ivyO, just pay as you go for services your student needs — better value, fairer terms, and much easier for families.

Confidentiality

ivyO will never use our students or parents' personal information for marketing or promotional purposes.

Clarity

ivyO helps students and parents cut through the maze, the mess, and the myths of the US and UK college admissions processes; showing families a new perspective, with clarity, of the pathway that leads students to their best-fit university, whether that happens to be an Ivy League school, Oxford, Cambridge, or any other top educational institutions.

But as always, ivyO believes that "fit" is more important than "brand" for college-bound students.

Empowered by the ivyO Strategic Consultation and with additional support at BaseCamp, ivyO students beam with pride and confidence as they turn their college admissions dreams to reality.

US Supreme Court ravages Affirmative Action in college admissions

What should Students do now?

On June 29, 2023, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) handed down its decision in Students for Fair Admissions, Inc (SFFA) v. President and Fellows of Harvard College, and SFFA v. the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC).

In a flash, the highest Court in the Land of the Free flipped on its head more than four decades of precedent and outlawed the use of race as a factor in college admissions.
