Is your student dreaming of going to a school like Stanford, Yale, Penn State, or Harvard?
They’ve hung banners in their room, taken campus tours, and already know what they want to study. They’ve taken AP courses, become president of campus societies, and are on track to graduate high school with honors.
It feels like now there is only one thing left to do – apply and wait.
What if we told you there is one more step to helping your child get accepted into their dream school? And that extra step gets them to a 70% chance of being accepted, rather than a 4% chance?
Personify does just that, and My Tutoring Partners has partnered with them to help your child achieve their dreams.
Personify is a college admissions consulting business run by Samarth and Cedric, who both attended top-rated universities: Georgia Tech and Stanford.
“I (Samarth) saw my friends, and so many other talented students who wanted to do more but either didn’t know how or didn’t have the right guidance. Instead, they ended up settling for cookie-cutter activities that didn’t reflect who they really were or what they were capable of. It was frustrating to watch students with so much potential limit themselves to surface-level involvement, when I knew they could be building things that actually made an impact,” Samarth said. “That’s why I started Personify: to give students the tools, mentorship, and confidence to take their ideas further, to create and scale projects that matter, that showcase their passions, and that open real opportunities.”
Samarth and Cedric did their own passion projects in high school, including starting national volunteering organizations, writing books, and raising over $50,000 for charity.
Personify claims that admissions are not random. They say that “trying to be ‘well-rounded’ is the fastest path to rejection.” Essentially, they help students stand out on their college applications.
“We transform ordinary students into extraordinary candidates who dominate the top 1% of applicants,” claims Personify.
Personify has helped students:
Launch and scale financial literacy programs that eventually merged with StreetFin (an established financial literacy program)
Secure internships at venture-backed startups, including Y Combinator-backed companies
Launch tech projects with thousands of users
Publish books
Samarth said Personify’s model is simple: “We only succeed if students succeed.”
“We don’t just give generic advice. You’ll see tangible results from the start,” Samarth said.
Personify has a three step transformation process:
45-Minute Consultation and Prep Plan
On the very first consultation call, Personify will help your student create a detailed plan showing exactly how they’ll transform their activities list.
Strategy Development and Growth Planning
Personify will offer a short “free trial” period where they pick one activity and help scale it, so families see real progress right away.
Acceleration and Scaling
Unlike traditional counseling services that meet once a month and provide surface-level guidance, Personify’s process is hands-on, mentor-driven, and built around proven strategies.
“We’ve done this before, we know the inside strategies that work, and we have mentors who’ve built impactful projects at the highest level. Families can trust us because results aren’t just promised, they’re built into how our business works,” Samarth said.
My Tutoring Partners trusts that Personify will help your student achieve their higher education dreams!

“The consulting team absolutely transformed my resume. They took my basic club memberships and volunteer work and turned them into extraordinary accomplishments that showcased real leadership and impact. The transformation was incredible.” -Saksham
“Personify College Consulting has been extremely helpful to me before the school year has even started. Cedric has worked with me step by step in my plans for college, passion projects, and insight on classes. Having a mentor like him makes me feel calm, knowing that he just went through this process not too long ago. He always responds quickly, giving me a detailed and easy to follow answer.” - Zoe
“They built my resume step by step. By junior year, I had leadership roles, published work, and a clear narrative that got me into my dream school. They gave me the confidence to tell my story and get me into my dream school.” - Arav
