About Us

College applications are increasingly competitive and opaque, with students stressing because they don’t know what admissions officers expect of them, while everyone tells them that this is the most important event of their life so far, without ever telling them how to properly navigate it.

Our Story

Sasha Chada founded Ivy Scholars in 2015 with the goal of giving students the guidance and clarity they needed to tackle the challenge of college applications. We meet students where they are on their journey, from high school freshmen taking their first tentative steps, to juniors cramming for the SATs, to seniors trying to write the perfect application essay. Every student gets the support they need to navigate their college application journey.

Methodology

We have developed our methodology based on our successes, and each student we work with lets us learn and improve. We have three services:

College Coaching

Where we guide students through every step of the college applications process, explaining how admissions officers think, and how to show off the best side of themselves.

Candidacy Building

To help students early in high school become the best versions of themselves. We give students the skills to become the scholars colleges are eager to recruit.

Test Prep

To help students prepare for the ever-dreaded SAT and ACT. Our students increase their SAT scores by an average of 180 points, taking their college chances to the next level.

The Results

Our methodology works, and our results speak for themselves: 

  • Ivy Scholars students are on average 3x more likely to get admitted into top colleges
  • 95% of our students get into one of their top choice colleges
  • Over 400 students helped into top colleges

Our Team

We hire graduates from top twenty colleges, with the knowledge and skills gained from personal experience of how to succeed in the admissions process. We bolster their natural talents with extensive training, to ensure they understand every part of the college admissions process. Indeed, mentors undergo two months of training before ever meeting with a student. 

Each student works one-on-one with a mentor, who guides them the whole way through their application process. We work as a network of experts, so a student’s mentor may connect them with a testing strategies coach, or call upon a researcher or editor to track down obscure references for the student. This integrated approach assures each student has the support they need.
