Why Crimson's Graduate School Admissions?
With admission rates to some leading US/UK master’s programs as low as 4.5%, some doctoral programs as low as 3%, and an academically competitive applicant pool, cutting edge expertise is more crucial than ever to craft a compelling application.
That’s why Crimson uses a field-specific consulting model. Combined with our multi-tier package options, our services help you identify best-fit programs.
Crimson comprises a global network of Strategists, mentors, and students passionate about growth and changing the world. Joining us is more than purchasing an admissions service: it’s gaining an experience, with unparalleled access to professionals, coaches, educators, and an alumni network of similarly inspired rising academics and young professionals.
We invite you to see for yourself.
