Ryan

The challenge
A 4.0 and an application identical to a thousand others.
The fix
We didn't add a single activity. We centered everything on the robotics work he'd been doing for his disabled brother.
The outcome
MIT, Stanford, UT Austin

Sophia

The challenge
A 3.2 GPA.
The fix
We built her story around public health, a thread already running through her life, and made the GPA the least interesting thing about her.
The outcome
Johns Hopkins, Michigan, Brown

Ava

The challenge
Waitlisted at Vanderbilt, her top choice.
The fix
We treated the waitlist like a second application.
The outcome
She's a Vanderbilt student today
How Position Engineering works
  1. Why qualified students blend in. At top universities, being qualified is normal. More clubs and more APs don't make an unclear application stronger. They make it noisier.
  2. Position Engineering and the spike. We don't invent a story. We find the one already in your child's life and build every piece of the application around it. Position Engineering is the process. The spike is the result.
  3. The officer becomes your child's advocate. An admissions officer has to stand up in committee and defend your child. When the application makes the case clearly, they stop skimming and start advocating.
