The Founder is Christopher Rim.

Command Education was founded in 2015, when Rim was a Sophomore at Yale University.

Command Education charges up to $950 per hour.

They have a 96% success rate of getting students in to top schools.

They not only advise on applications, but take a more holistic approach of coaching students on life activities as well.

Command Education breaks their college application consulting services down into multiple areas based on a student’s current year of study.

Offering 8th-12th grade counseling, Command Education focuses on providing their services to students based on their current needs and where they are in the overall process.

For rising seniors, Command Education also offers the College Application Booster Camp.

This program is a five-day intensive and is offered remotely or in person in LA, NYC, and Dubai. Over the course of five days, students work alongside experienced counselors to devise an application strategy formulated to help them stand out amongst the application pool.

The Premier Senior Package (11-12th grade) is designed to start at any time from mid-junior year or later.

With acceptance rates at top-tier and Ivy League colleges at an all-time low, and competition peaking this year, it’s never been more essential for students to stand out with an application that gives them a competitive edge.

The mentors guide students to reflect on their accomplishments as they create college lists, highlight extracurriculars, and craft compelling personal essays, all while managing the process from start to finish.

Additionally, Command Education offers tutoring services, supplementary academic courses, specialized programs geared towards initiating entrepreneurial/nonprofit projects, assistance with internship/research opportunities, and guidance on extracurricular development. Partnered with the Novel Education Group, Command Education also offers homeschooling.

College Application Booster is a virtual or in-person camp for rising seniors and takes place every year in July and August. In just 5 days, students will tackle the college application process months before their peers, allowing them to complete quality, standout work through the guidance of our expert mentors.

Standardized Test Prep: The school tutors have proven track records helping students achieve their desired results. They’ve worked and earned impressive results with students of all ability levels, and have the most up-to-date information about standardized testing’s fast-changing landscape.

Command Education works with students starting as early as middle school and as late as current college students hoping to transfer schools.

The school encourages their clients to start working with them at the beginning of their high school careers (or earlier) as it’s never too early to gain a head start in the college admissions process.

The services offerings vary based on the grade of the student.

At Command Education, the counselors work side-by-side with your child to:

• Refine their college list and select schools based on their unique strengths and interests

• Outline an intensive and holistic plan of study for academics as well as a personalized testing schedule

• Select extracurricular and summer activities specifically geared to highlight their distinctive talents

• Determine which schools to visit and learn how to make the most of their time there

• Practice and prepare for presenting their best self during a college interview

• Develop and polish a thorough resume to showcase their achievements to colleges and high-value internship programs

• Draft and refine a thoughtful personal essay that highlights their unique personality in a way that appeals to top-tier schools

• Assess offers of admission and most effectively respond to waitlist and deferral letters

At Command Education, main goal is for students to get into elite schools, to succeed and thrive once they are there.

The school guidance is personalized and tailored to each student and his or her specific needs and goals.

Because the school mentoring is based in EQ, or emotional intelligence, students develop socially and emotionally and build the skills they need to succeed in college, in their personal and professional lives, and beyond.

The school mentors are all recent graduates of Ivy League and top tier schools.

The team is also near-peer, so they are able to effectively guide high school students through a process they succeeded in recently, often playing a role similar to an ‘older brother’ or ‘older sister’ of their mentees.

College admissions have changed dramatically in the past decade, and a lot of advice that was once useful now no longer applies or can even hurt a student’s chances.

Knowing that the school counselors are all recent graduates of the most elite schools gives students confidence that the methods work.

The ultimate goal is to spark curiosity and genuine enthusiasm in our students and provide them with the opportunity and the support system to find their ‘hook’ and develop a passion and skill set that will set them apart.
