5 strategies FOR MAKING YOURSELF A BETTER APPLICANT
UNION HALL advising
A NEW ERA IN COLLEGE ADMISSIONS
We are just at the start of an unprecedented time in college admissions. GPAs and test scores still matter - but only within the context of a student's broader opportunities and personal story. Today, highly selective colleges are placing even more importance on subjective measures like intellectual curiosity, writing ability, and success in the adult world. Building character-driven narratives and revealing them in the application takes careful packaging. It's also what we do best. If your goal is to gain admission to a highly selective college or to get the most merit aid possible in this new world, we can help.
Our team is adept at getting students into their dream schools. Whether you aspire for the Top 10 or The Top 100, we know how to make your application stand out.
Whether you are a Senior ready to apply to your dream schools or a Freshman starting to plan your high-school career, we can help. Our team of advisors helps every student solidify their personal narrative, build a college list that maximizes selectivity and merit aid, and write every essay and fill out every application.
seniors
Take control of the application process and package yourself to stand out. We have a proven method for getting good kids into great schools. No matter how far along you are in the process of applying, we can help.
If you’re a junior thinking about college, now is the right time to start working with us. We will help you make the most of your remaining time and make sure that what you do now is what colleges want to see next year.
The best way to gain admission to highly selective colleges is to work backwards from your senior year, planning and accomplishing now what you’ll want to showcase later. Our advisors work with students as young as 8th grade to make this happen.

We've been working with the team at Union Hall for years. They guided our son through high school. It's been great to have them at his side. There's no way he would have the resume he has now without their help.”

"they know what they're doing
We really liked the pragmatism of the leaders at Union Hall. They approached this like a project which helped quell some of the emotion and kept everyone on track. They really know what they are doing.”
