Pioneering the concept “Network Counseling”, Ivy Gate fully integrates the network with its counseling methods. The idea focuses on three key elements – Network, Relevance, and Peer-to-Peer Relations.
Network is a reference to Ivy Gate’s unique structure. Beyond the typical 1-on-1 counseling service, Ivy Gate’s method focuses on each student’s distinctive qualities within a particular college’s applicant pool as well as provides Ivy Gate’s students with multiple sources of analysis and support. The network also functions as a delegation mechanism which enhances the quality and efficiency of our work.
Relevance stems from the self-evolving nature of Ivy Gate. Ivy Gate recruits from a range of prospective students, current students, and alumni. Ivy Gate possesses the most updated news from the most updated applicants. With our unique sources of information, we develop a market position for each student. We package each applicant based on his or her comparative advantage versus that of other applicants, and find out what colleges are looking for and not getting.
Peer-to-peer relations play an important role in Ivy Gate’s methodology. High school students find it most effective to learn from their peers who have been through the process. Generation gap that haunts parenting and the education is eliminated by Ivy Gate’s horizontal approach. Combining Network, Relevance, and Peer-to-Peer Relations, Ivy Gate is able to introduce a revolutionary concept, Network Counseling.
