Crimson: Your Child’s University Admissions Advantage
Top universities are more competitive than ever. Crimson helps your child stand out — but what sets us apart from the rest?
Increase Your Child's Chances of Acceptance
More families every year are working with an external admissions consultancy, if you want your child to stand out from their equally ambitious peers then you should too. In 2023, 23% of the freshmen at the top-ranked Ivy League university reported working with a private admissions counsellor, and among families with incomes over $500,000, nearly half relied on professional support. But why Crimson?
6 Reasons Why Crimson Stands Out Above the Rest
Things you won't find at other university admissions consultancies.
01
Holistic Application Support
Our students get a team of experts who focus on each area of the application process. Each student is paired with an expert Strategist who oversees their application and helps them create a list of safety, target and reach schools.
02
Former Admissions Officers
Our experts have previously been the decision-makers at the top universities in the UK and US. Our AO service includes in-depth feedback on every aspect of the student’s candidacy and application materials, comprehensive written feedback, and 1:1 meetings.
03
Extracurricular Support
We provide our students with a range of unique out-of-classroom opportunities — from the ability to intern at Uber to teaming them up with like-minded scientists, coders, humanitarians, artists and/or musicians from around the world.
04
Our Student Success
Our students are between 2-10x more likely to gain admission to the Ivy League and other top schools than the general applicant. All our student results are audited by one of the Big Four accounting firms — making our reporting both accurate and reliable.
05
Our Founders Have Been There
Our Co-Founder and CEO, Jamie Beaton, is a graduate of Harvard, Stanford, UPenn, Yale, Oxford & KCL. Many university consultancies are run by people who don’t know what it's like to succeed at a competitive institution in recent years, but we do!
06
AI-Enhanced Student Support
Our proprietary AI tools help predict admissions outcomes and guide strategic decisions using hundreds of thousands of data points. This allows our team to deliver faster, smarter, and more personalised support, while maintaining a strong human touch throughout the process.

Looking back now, seeing all I have done and the unconditional support my team provided me, I just know that Crimson helped me be the very best that I could be.
Josh S.
Student
I know Crimson have the information and their tutors and mentors are the best, but the fact that they get so invested - that they give you such peace of mind, that was just incredible.
Camilla F.
Student
The support I received in essay writing, extracurricular planning, and test preparation was incredibly helpful and made a huge difference in my applications.
Milly G.
Student
Starting early was definitely helpful as it allowed me to write up 12 or 13 drafts and make it very individual and personal to me. I am really proud of the final statement, and that was all because of my team.
