I want to greatly thank Paula Gluzman for all of her guidance, therapy sessions, and editing on my applications. She was a tremendous help, and I feel so lucky that we were paired up together when I started with Spivey. She made the application process much easier and kept me on track with my goals, while also making sure I was realistic. In addition, she made me feel comfortable enough sharing stories with her that I had trouble talking about, but knew would help the admissions team see my strength and resiliency. If it weren’t for Paula, I probably wouldn’t have written some of those essays, and who knows where I would be!
With years of admissions experience and a personalized approach, we are here to guide you through the process and help you present your strongest application. Reach out today to get started.
