Chicago, Illinois College Consulting
Chicago Admissions Counseling: Our Method
Chicago is a city known for many things; deep-dish pizza, improv comedy, and bone-chilling winds just to name a few. Within the energetic hustle of the ‘Windy City’, lie incredible institutions like the Latin School of Chicago, University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, and others shaping the young minds that will lead tomorrow. With such incredible institutions at their doorstep, Chicagoans often find themselves aspiring to equally esteemed colleges nationwide.
The academic bar is higher than the Willis Tower and the competition is intense. But fear not, navigating the college application process doesn’t have to be like tackling Michigan Avenue during rush hour. Let’s go on this journey together with IvySummit.

Senior Year Timeline
The senior year of high school is crunch time for college applications, but with IvySummit guiding the way, it doesn’t have to be a scramble. We help students navigate the timeline smoothly, from finalizing their college list to diligently crafting compelling personal essays, to filling out forms, and collecting letters of recommendation.
We guide students through their timelines ensuring they present their best selves to their dream colleges on time, every time.
College Lists
Creating a robust and personalized college list is a crucial step in the application process. It’s more than just a list; it’s a strategic map of where you see yourself thriving academically and personally for the next four years.
At IvySummit, we understand the unique culture, academic offerings, and social dynamics of colleges across the nation and beyond. We help our students from Chicago and elsewhere to build a tailored list that fits their aspirations and potentials – be it small liberal arts colleges, large state universities, or Ivy League institutions.
Extracurricular
Extracurricular activities play a significant role in showing colleges the kind of person you are outside of the classroom. They tell a story about your interests, passions, leadership, and dedication.
At IvySummit, we guide our students from Chicago and elsewhere to explore and deepen their extracurricular commitments. Whether you’re into music, sports, science, community service, or entrepreneurship, we can help you make the most of your time outside the classroom.
Intellectual Vitality
Intellectual vitality is about more than just getting good grades. It’s about a deep and genuine curiosity, a love of learning, and a willingness to go beyond what’s required in the pursuit of knowledge.
Whether it’s through selecting challenging courses, pursuing independent research, or participating in intellectually stimulating extracurriculars, we guide students in ways that allow their passion for learning to shine through.
We help them weave their experiences into their essays and interviews, demonstrating to admissions officers that they are not just proficient in their studies, but have a deep passion in their areas of interest.
