But we care about more than just results
ESC helps its students build valuable skills and fosters a vibrant community
Meet Turvey Chu
“ESC gave me a warm familial atmosphere during my high school journey and application season. I can still remember the crowded ESC center when everyone was typing non-stop during application season. Such great memories.”
Turvey Chu
ESC Class of 2020,
Pomona Class of 2024
“ESC counselors are really responsible and supportive. In-depth conversations with my counselors not only sparked valuable ideas for my essays but also enhanced my self-confidence.”
Heather Guo

Brown University Class of 2022
“The best part about my college application experience was meeting my counselor. My counselor has been extremely helpful to me throughout the process and has truly become a friend that I felt comfortable just talking to.”
Alice Zhao

University of Pennsylvania Class of 2022
“For the past three years, the ESC community has been extremely supportive of me. Whenever I meet with my counselor, not only do I feel comfortable talking about my school life and education goals, but I am willing to share my thoughts and feelings with her.”
Keira Han

“My favorite aspect of being an ESC student is the daily lunches. After spending the morning meeting with my counselor, incorporating new ideas into my supplemental essays, I look forward to listening to the different conversations going around the lunch table.”
Amy Cheng
ESC Class of 2015,
Yale College Class of 2019
“What I love the most is how supportive and close-knit the ESC community is. Be mentally prepared for how many revisions your counselor will ask you to do before your essays are ready, but once I had my final versions, I knew all the effort I put in was worth it.”
Jennifer Hong
ESC Class of 2015,
Duke University Class of 2019
“The best part about being an “ESCer” is that I can meet other people who are equally hard-working, if not more. Whether I am struggling to brainstorm for my essays or just taking a break, I can always immerse myself in fruitful conversations with other students or counselors.”
Eric Wu
ESC Class of 2017,
Tufts University Class of 2021
“ESC inspired me to express who I truly am in my application essays. More importantly, ESC is a place where the experiences of so many wonderful human beings intersect. I am very grateful for the lasting friendships that I gained from this community.”
