Set yourself up for long-term success by getting expert help in the early stages of your dental school application process. This flexible package helps you focus on what's most important, right now — without committing to a start-to-finish engagement. You’ll partner with a Leland coach to strategically tackle the parts of the process that will have the greatest impact. Your coach will help you prioritize your time, identify key areas of opportunity, and build momentum toward your target schools. Common coaching activities in this package include, but are not limited to: 1. Creating an Application Plan: Dive into your background, professional and personal experiences, dream schools, career aspirations, and more. Together, you and your coach will develop a customized plan specifically tailored to your dental school application journey. 2. School Selection: Collaborate closely with your coach to compile a list of optimal dental schools that align with your profile, aspirations, and preferences. 3. Application Strategy: Your coach will help you identify your unique strengths and advantages as an applicant and plan how to effectively showcase those strengths throughout your dental school application. If you're concerned about any part of your application profile, like your DAT score or GPA, your coach will help you develop an application that proactively addresses these areas and effectively spotlights your strengths. 4. Personal Statement Brainstorming, Advising & Editing: Get expert guidance and feedback from your coach on your personal statement. Find confidence in a narrative that effectively highlights your motivations, experiences, and aspirations. 5. Activity Descriptions: Work closely with your coach to decide which extracurricular activities, experiences, awards, and honors to include and how to describe them in a way that fits your application's broader narrative. 6. Letters of Recommendation: Strategize with your coach about choosing potential recommenders, making recommendation requests, and supporting recommenders so you can be sure you're getting strong letters of recommendation. 8. Secondaries Advising & Editing: Understand exactly what each school is looking for in their secondaries and get personalized advising support from your coach. This package is ideal for applicants who want high-leverage support early in the process. It’s your launchpad to a stronger, more intentional dental school application — guided by world-class admissions coaches.

Harvard DMD Candidate | Expert Dental School Coach | Best OOS Coach
As a current Harvard DMD candidate and private tutor, I have a deep understanding of the dental school admissions process and what it takes to succeed. My experience as an admissions counselor and tutor at College Choice Counseling and DAT Bootcamp has allowed me to help students excel in all areas of the Dental Admission Test (DAT), build strong school lists, plan resume-building activities, craft a personal statement, nail their interviews, and everything in between. I have helped dozens of students accomplish their dreams and I can help you reach yours too! For those curious about my application cycle: I applied to 11 schools, received interview invites to 10 schools, interviewed at 8 programs, and was accepted to 6 programs--including Harvard (where I now attend), UCLA (as an out-of-state applicant) with a Dean's scholarship, and UT Health Houston (as an out-of-state applicant) with their "Glenn T. Housholder Competetive Scholarship", which meant I would receive in-state tuition in addition to the scholarship money they were offering me.
