“The mentorship program was truly the turning point in my application journey. I had confidence in my academic record, but I quickly realized that applying to universities, especially in the U.S., requires much more than good grades. The guidance I received through the Road to Success Mentorship Program gave me clarity on every step, from choosing the right schools to presenting myself authentically in essays. What stood out most for me was the personalized feedback on my writing—it helped me tell my story in a way that felt true to who I am and still made an impact. I honestly believe this was what set my application apart.
The UC applications were an entirely different challenge compared to the Common App. With their unique Personal Insight Questions and a completely separate system, I remember feeling overwhelmed at first. But with the right guidance, I not only felt confident in tackling those essays but also ended up being admitted to every single UC school I applied to—a result I could not have imagined on my own.
If you’re on the fence about Incognito Blueprints, take it from me—this program provides support and clarity that you simply can’t put a price on. Even when I thought I could handle things on my own, I kept discovering how many small but crucial details—deadlines, supplemental requirements, and financial aid documents—could easily slip through the cracks. What really made the difference for me was knowing I wasn’t going through it all alone. This program not only helped me avoid those pitfalls but also gave me a sense of confidence and calm throughout the process. For any student who is serious about maximizing their chances of admission, I can honestly say that joining this mentorship was the best decision I made.”

“The mentorship program was THE opportunity in order to succeed during my application process. I was already familiar with it, but I did not know until I pursued the program how complex is to get into an American university. Specifically, I must say that the best part of the Road to Success Mentorship Program was the one-to-one advising with essays. I feel it is a tough part of the process, as it is the most personal aspect of your identity you will be showing to admission committees.
If you are debating over purchasing any mentorship program from Incognito Blueprints, I would simply recommend you to take it. Even if you are already familiarized with the components of the application portal, you could be forgetting some specific aspects that are as important as general ones. From deadlines to how to complete correctly the CSS Profile, any mistake might difficult your chances of getting into any university. As a result, if you are committed to success in your applications, enrolling on this mentorship program is definitely the best option for you.”

“More than the actual merit of a student, the burden of knowing which checkpost to reach next in the application process weighs down the focus on the larger picture. The Ivy League 101 course cuts out this burden and makes a big difference. I have had no background in applying to US institutions and even no idea of the vast scholarships I could get, but, after holding onto the videos, the chapters, the mentorship, and this entire network for months, I've managed to have a total of $168,000 in scholarships at hand from my current college acceptances put together. ”
