Houston has a large and increasingly competitive college-bound population. Students from KIPP, Bellaire, Memorial, and top private schools across the metro area are competing for the same limited spots at highly selective universities — alongside students from every other major city in the country.
Texas produces a high volume of strong applicants, and the state's large population means the absolute number of students competing for top schools is significant. A distinctive, well-crafted application — not just strong credentials — is what makes the difference between an admit and a waitlist.
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.
