The transfer process is largely a mystery, and as an international student even more so. The Goat and his team really are the experts at what they do and my results getting into multiple Ivies speak to that.
I worked with my advisor for about a year. She had answers for all of my questions and I can honestly say the service I received was worth a lot more than I paid. They are the best transfer advisors in the game
As a pre-med it is really hard to stand out. I got the help I needed to build an org from the ground up. The guidance I received is how I stood out, and I have no doubt it’s why I’m a student at Brown.
With the help of The Goat, my work experience in Kenya was translated into a thorough extracurricular story that I could build upon. I am certain that he placed a crucial role in my acceptance at Penn.
As a CS major, I needed to develop a strong EC but didn’t know what would help me stand out. The Goat helped me frame my work in AI and software development in a way admissions officers understood and valued. That perspective was a game changer - I'm now at Columbia
In finance, admissions officers aren’t looking for another “finance bro.” The Goat helped me create impact-driven parts of my extracurriculars so my story resonated with AOs. I currently attend Cornell University
