Comments from Our Clients

Daniel and Rae are the most responsible consultants I have ever seen, and they have a wealth of experience. They provided great assistance during the application and school visit process. My child received five offers.

Admitted to Miss Porter’s School

Parent from China

The guidance and support from Sesameed like no other. We applied with a late application and five acceptances and one waitlist. The interview, essay, and holistic training from Sesameed throughout the process was indispensable.

Admitted to The Madeira School

Student from Myanmar

I have learned to be more comfortable talking to others. I love the way Daniel (my consultant) guided me to treat the interview more as a conversation. Trust the process and do your best!

Interview Training

interviews are a critical element in every school's admission process. We help students prepare for successful interviews —and we coach families on how they can use the interview process to identity the very best school for their children.

Essay Coaching

Essays are an essential part of every boarding school application — and they can make or break an applications. We coach students in understanding the goal of admissions essays, how they can stand out, and how they build the strongest possible essay that is still authentically their own.

Campus Tour Service

We lead campus tours with a deeper purpose. We help families decipher the nuances and subtle differences between the boarding schools. Since many campus tours include interviews, these visits can be intense — which is why we enjoy being there with you as a resource and coach.

Life Coaching

After your child is already enrolled, a coach and mentor can help them make the most of their journey at boarding school. Boarding schools provide advisors, but — especially for international students — an additional mentor can provide key guidance for success in boarding school, university applications, and life skills.

Ongoing Monitoring & Advisory Service

This is often used as a pre-application service where parents are already inclined to prepare their child for boarding school while their child is still a few years away from applying. Under this service, we will be monitoring your child along the way in four key developmental areas: academic, extracurricular, social, and personal, and providing ongoing advice to ensure the best possible preparation for your child’s eventual boarding school application.

Summer School Search & Application

Residential summer programs are excellent ways to test whether your child will like boarding school. There is a summer school for every child’s interest. Spare your research time and efforts, and use our search service to plan for a purpose-led, enjoyable summer experience for your child.
