Hi, I'm Arjun. I got into Cornell without the highest GPA — I got there by focusing on my story, not just my transcript, and that's exactly what I help students do. I care about writing that sounds honest rather than polished for its own sake, and I like helping students find the through-line in their own experience before we touch a single sentence of grammar.
Arjun has helped a transfer applicant get into Cornell by rebuilding their essays around a clearer, more honest narrative arc — the same approach that got him into Cornell himself despite not having the highest GPA. He's also helped a friend with a low high-school GPA and no test scores get admitted to BU and Lafayette (with scholarship), and helped a neighbor's personal statement land her at the University of Miami. Across every essay, his focus is the same: find the real story first, then make the writing serve it.
