Christie St-John
What I have enjoyed most in my 25 years in higher ed and admissions has been working with students – watching them grow, develop, and succeed in their careers. I love building very close relationships with my clients, and I am as excited as they are when they call to say they’ve been admitted to the school of their dreams.

What Do Christie’s Clients Say?

I got into HBS!!! It felt unreal when I saw the decision letter and I had all kinds of mixed emotions as I looked back on this long 14-month application journey. Thank you again for your guidance and support – it was a pleasure working with you and I think you really helped me think more deeply and critically about my experiences.
