Lux Admissions
Grace R., Harvard ‘29
“As someone who initially struggled to find footing and direction in my essays, I found Will’s guidance especially helpful during my college admissions process. From our long conversations to his thoughtful feedback on my writing, he truly helped me find the stories that I wanted to represent me in my application. I never felt like I was telling a story that wasn’t true to me—my biggest priority was to be as authentic in my writing, and I found that was Will’s biggest priority as well. I strongly recommend Will: I would not have been able to get through the difficult admissions process without his unconditional support and guidance.”
Jaclyn E., Princeton ‘29
“Lux Admissions has been an amazing resource throughout my college application process. They have been a tremendous help in terms of navigating the college essay revision process, and have helped me find my voice within my writing. Both virtual sessions and in-person meetings helped me feel more confident about my application and pointed me towards the right direction. I am extremely grateful for Lux Admissions, and couldn't have done it without them.”
William K., Yale ‘28
“Working with Will and Lux Admissions during my college application process was truly transformative. His personalized guidance and support helped me improve my Common App essay and gave me sharp and knowledgeable advice for my supplementals and activities list. William pushed me to critically evaluate my strengths and helped me improve with every draft. He is reliable, creative, and bright-minded, and his example inspired me to approach the process with focus and confidence.”
Cody K., Dartmouth ‘29
“Will is the best college guide and mentor I could have asked for. He makes a genuine effort to get to know each one of his students and truly cares about their success in college admissions. Will has tremendous experience on both sides of college admissions, and it shows. Whether it be bouncing ideas back and forth for the next great essay topic, helping perfect the flow of a sentence, or even general tips on forming a balanced list, I could not have gotten through the process without him and am incredibly grateful for his guidance. Beyond his mentorship, Will is a charismatic, caring, and kind role model. From someone who has the privilege of attending their dream school, Will is the best mentor out there.”
Sonia D., Stanford ‘29
“Will was a tremendous help to me in my college process – while he encouraged me and provided advice, I never felt like I was being pushed in a direction that was unnatural to me. Will understood what I wanted and supported me in getting there. He is a phenomenal writer and editor, but I think Will’s real power is in the brainstorming process – he would call with me for hours to discuss the directions of my essays and the narrative I was presenting of myself. Most importantly, Will was a great cheerleader to me throughout my college application journey. He celebrated each finished essay, each submitted application, and later, my acceptance into Stanford. Will’s intelligence, support, and breadth of knowledge of the college process was instrumental in my admission.”
John W., Yale ‘29
“Will Wang helped me so incredibly much during the college admissions process. He has taken so much time to guide me in formulating the perfect application, and I could not be more grateful for his help. Our long conversations about the events and thoughts in my life unexpectedly, yet seamlessly turned into great essay ideas, which he also took so much time and consideration with editing and structuring. Outside of writing, he was extremely helpful with my college list and application plans, genuinely considering what was in my best interest. He’s been the perfect mentor for me through the difficult admissions process, and his guidance has directly contributed to my success.”
