Essay Coach and College Admissions Consultant in Dallas, Southlake, and Frisco

I'm Saketh, a Yale undergraduate and coach/consultant based in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I help students get into their dream school through college prep counseling, passion project building, and essay coaching. I specifically love working through the creative writing process and helping families manage what actually matters in order to alleviate anxiety.

Do you work in Dallas in person?

Yes, with some flexibility. I'm based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area and meet with families in Dallas, Southlake, Frisco, and surrounding communities in person. During the semester, I'm able to meet through Zoom or Google Meets.

What grade should my student start?

I work with students from 9th grade through 12th grade. I believe that starting early gives both me and your student the most runway before the application cycle. That said, if your student is already a junior or senior, there's still plenty we can do together.

What makes you different from other consultants in Dallas?

I went through this process two years ago. I know what schools like Yale, UPenn, and Johns Hopkins are looking for. Many consultants — and I know this from experience — provide outdated information that only worked ten years ago.

Spots for 2026-27 cycle are limited. Start with a call.
