Personalised guidance for UK students applying to US universities
About Us
Our aim
Trajectory is a bespoke US university applications consultancy that offers tailored guidance and individualised support to UK and other secondary school students applying to American universities.
We know that applying to US universities can be overwhelming. Unlike the UK university application process, there is no standardised US university application process. Each US university has its own deadlines and individual requirements.
​
We aim to de-mystify the process, streamline your application approach and maximise your chances of success at your chosen American university.
​

Our Services
Focused applications advice
We provide tailored guidance to UK secondary school students seeking admission to American universities. We help you to select your target US universities, assist you in navigating the admissions process including timelines and strategy for Early Decision/ Early Action/ Regular Decision, and guide you with respect to standardised test policies such as the SAT and ACT.
Personalised support
We understand that every student is a unique blend talents and interests. That's why we offer personalised support throughout the admissions process, from inputting on your application (on the Common App portal or otherwise), commenting on personal essays and assisting with interview preparation. Our goal is to help you present your best self to American universities.
Initial consultation & fees
We offer an initial phone consultation to discuss your aspirations, how we can help, and our fee structure. Our aim is to provide a highly personalised and cost-effective service.
