CollegeMeister

Welcome, and thank you for visiting.

My name is Craig Meister, and over the last fifteen years, I’ve helped thousands of students and parents master the American undergraduate admissions process. Now it’s your turn.

How have I become one of the world’s most trusted sources of expert and unfiltered undergraduate admissions guidance? The answer is quite simple: my results.

I teach my students how to earn their way into the colleges of their choice. In the process, all of my students realize their goals and reach their potential.

I understand that individuals who are in the process of determining and pursuing their post-secondary goals have a variety of guidance and support options from which to choose; yet, I confidently assert that the quality and professionalism of my one-on-one college admissions coaching and consulting services are unsurpassed by anyone, anywhere. I give you more than a helping hand; when working with me you gain a committed, innovative, and insightful advocate. My mission is simple: meet students where they are in order to take them where they want to go.

My students earn acceptance into the most selective colleges and universities in the world, and these same students are annually awarded millions of dollars in merit-based scholarships. With an intense focus on return on investment, I also work extremely hard to ensure that all of my clients end up in post-secondary environments that are as attractive for their educational efficacy as they are for their likelihood to be deemed financial and experiential assets for the duration of clients’ lives.

As Seen In

Whether determining where a student’s passion lies or advising a student who is choosing between several letters of acceptance, I provide on-going strategic counsel to students and families throughout the transition from high school to what comes next.

Best of all, working with me is as easy as 1-2-3:

STEP 1: ENGAGE IN COMPREHENSIVE STUDENT ANALYSIS
My initial review process assesses each student’s post-secondary prospects based on his or her academic, standardized test, extracurricular, and personal history to date while also addressing areas of potential improvement. By developing a personalized game plan and basing college list formation on the interests and needs of the individual student, I maximize the chances that each student will ultimately reach his or her goals and meet with the most happiness and success.

STEP 2: ACQUIRE THE KNOWLEDGE YOU WANT – WHEN YOU WANT IT!
I offer both laser and comprehensive college admissions coaching services that work around your busy lifestyle and ever-changing schedule. My unrivaled commitment to my clients ensures that you are always just a phone call, click-of-the-mouse, or swipe away from receiving the personalized expert advice that you require in order to achieve your post-secondary potential.

Learn:

✔ how to draft remarkable extracurricular resumes

✔ how to write winning college essays

✔ how to ace the alumni or on-campus interview

✔ who to target for recommendations

✔ which colleges to visit

✔ how to make the most of college visits

✔ where to find the most merit aid

✔ how to maximize the chances of earning merit- and/or need-based aid

✔ when to apply (Rolling, Priority, Early, Regular, etc.)

✔ how to meet intense deadlines

✔ how to put together an overall extraordinary application

✔ and so much more!

STEP 3: RELAX
I’ve got you covered! No high school guidance counselor, academic teacher, or ACT or SAT prep tutor can provide anything close to the personalized attention, determined effort, and comprehensive guidance that define my college admissions coaching services. The process of determining your path after high school can be incredibly time-consuming and stressful, but it does not have to be when you have the right support; I guide clients through the self-discovery, search, and post-secondary selection process by giving students the attention, consideration, and confidence they need to make the right choices for themselves.

Client Reviews

We used Craig for both of our kids. After Craig helped our kids articulate their interests and identify schools where they might be happy, both had a positive experience with admissions and ended up in the right place.

Craig Meister was the best decision we made throughout the process. He's simply an expert! He really knew his stuff, everything he advised turned out to be accurate. He was even helpful when the fear and anxiety became overwhelming. My daughter got into her early decision school. Worth every penny!

Craig Meister was extremely instrumental in keeping my son on track, in addition to rapidly responding to his needs – especially as he neared deadlines. This couldn’t have been easy, given the amount of clients he serves, but my son never felt that Craig wasn’t there for him and alongside him in every step of the process. Craig has good insight and instincts, but is also willling to listen and learn if a student has a unique set of variables — my son had a non-traditional major with extensive application supplements and Craig was still very instrumental in successfully helping him to navigate it. The result: my son was accepted into his two top choices: one – the most competitive in his chosen field of study and two – the highest ranked college in the country! If you are seeking personalized attention from someone who understands the process, I urge you to hire Craig!
