Abbey Road Helps Students Stand Out In College Admissions

Abbey Road is dedicated to enhancing students’ college applications and preparation through an array of programs.

Abbey Road’s College Prep program at Emerson College in downtown Boston hones writing skills, prepares students for tests and exposes students to real-life college issues.

In the College Prep program, students take SAT prep courses, begin crafting their personal essays and get one-on-one college admissions mentoring from guidance professionals, while enjoying a pre-college living experience.

“The city of Boston boasts some of the nation’s most prestigious and innovative colleges and universities and is the ideal location for anyone interested in college admissions preparation,” said Abbey Road managing director and founder Dr. Arthur Kian. “Students completing this program do not simply produce one-time results; they are given the tools to change their daily study habits and preparatory approach for recurring and lasting success.”

Students enroll in The Princeton Review’s daily SAT prep course and take elective courses in college essay writing and college admissions.

The rigorous curriculum is enhanced by targeted workshops and seminars on issues like selecting an undergraduate major and figuring out which freshman core curriculum to choose.

The program staff is comprised of current college and high school guidance counselors with five to seven years’ experience in college counseling. Many staff members have SAT and ACT tutoring experience, degrees in English or experience tutoring English, so that they can help students prepare for application essays and standardized tests. Staff members closely monitor student progress through mentoring sessions and one-on-one tutoring.

College campus visits to Harvard, Amherst, Wellesley, Hampshire, MIT, Bentley, Boston University, Boston College, Yale, Brandeis and Babson compliment daily coursework.
