"Hi, I’m Cheryl Gartsbeyn, and I’m passionate about helping students unlock their full potential and gain acceptance to the colleges of their dreams. With over 10 years of experience in education and a Master’s degree in English Education from Teachers College, Columbia University and a Bachelor’s Degree in English and Economics from Boston University, I specialize in guiding students through the college admissions process with personalized, strategic support. From crafting standout essays to developing tailored application strategies, my goal is to make the process clearer, more manageable, and ultimately successful for each student I work with.

In addition to my academic advising experience, I bring a background in special education, which has equipped me with the skills to meet students where they are and tailor my approach to fit their unique needs. Having worked with students from diverse backgrounds, I understand how overwhelming the college application process can be. That’s why I focus on understanding each student’s individual strengths and helping them present their best self to admissions committees. My approach is grounded in empathy, expertise, and a commitment to achieving results that reflect each student’s hard work and potential. Let’s work together to help you turn your college aspirations into reality!" less...
