Boston is one of the most education-dense cities in the world, and the competition for elite college admissions is intense. Students from Boston Latin, Exeter, Andover, and top public and private schools across Massachusetts are applying to the same selective schools — often with equally strong profiles.
Living near Harvard and MIT doesn't make getting in any easier. The proximity to elite universities creates an unusually competitive local pool. The students who stand out do so because of how they present themselves — not just what they've accomplished. That's the craft Laplace focuses on.
Why Laplace
Our consultants finished the exact application cycle your student is about to enter. We know what worked — not from a playbook, but from personal experience.
Every essay is reviewed by a founder. We don't route students to whoever is available — you work directly with someone who got into a top school and knows how to help you do the same.
We tell you when an essay isn't working, when a school is a stretch, and what actually needs to change. No hedge, no false reassurance — just direct, specific guidance.
What We Offer
Common App personal statement and all school-specific supplements, from brainstorming through final draft.
Building a balanced, well-researched list of reach, target, and likely schools tailored to your profile.
How to present your activities, frame your narrative, and identify gaps before application season.
Strategy for national competitions and scholarships that strengthen your application.
