Rates

Our rates range from $290/hr to $1600/hr. Most of our clients complete between 100 and 150 hours, but we've seen successful students do as few as 15 and as many as 1,000. It depends entirely on the degree to which a family wants our day to day help.

While most of our students work on an hourly basis, we do offer the introductory package below as a way to begin with Lakhani Coaching.

Selective admissions is no easy maze to navigate.

We guide students through a gambit of challenging processes including selecting fulfilling courses, understanding what grades and test scores are needed to earn admission to a dream program, and finding character pursuits that resonate with a student’s sincere interests.

Our coaching begins with a Goal Setting Meeting at the start of each semester, during which the entire team (student, parents, coach) arrives at a set of goals in each of our three paradigms for a fulfilling academic career: Academics, Problem Solving Ability, and Character. On the character front, the coach leads a thorough search for extracurricular pursuits tailored to each student’s unique narrative, including both academic year and summer activities. 

The year ahead of applications, our students are on excellent footing to begin the long list, then short list process, before working over 20 dedicated hours with one of our Admissions Coaches to excavate their Overall Narrative for personal statements and complete applications. 

Admissions Counseling can begin at any time, but is most effective when started 2 to 3 years ahead of applications. Our introductory package includes the following:

• first 7 hours with our Executive Director, including character coaching and program list formation

• first 16 hours of application coaching, including Overall Narrative personal statement development

Package price: $15,000

Note that any one-on-one instruction, academic, or test coaching will be billed in addition to the above package. Any hours in excess of above allowances will be billed on an hourly basis.
