The Elevation Experience: What Awaits
The “Elevation Experience”—IvyWise’s inaugural luxury campus tour—starts on October 13 in New York City. This all-inclusive extravaganza invites seven students and their parents for a whirlwind tour of seven elite universities.
Four Days of Opulence
Over four luxurious days, participants will glide between campuses aboard a private Gulfstream G650 jet. Along the way, they’ll enjoy VIP accommodations, gourmet dining, and expert guidance.
Day-by-Day Breakdown
Day 1: The Big Apple
The tour kicks off with a luxurious visit to Columbia University and New York University. Parents can indulge in gourmet dinners at either Casa Cipriani or Zero Bond, while students savor delectable Samoa Sundaes at the trendy Corner Store, a favorite among celebrities.
Day 2: Ivy League Ventures
After a restful night at the Four Seasons in Tribeca, it’s time for takeoff! The group will jet-set to Princeton University and then zip over to Yale, ensuring a deeply engaging experience at each campus.
Day 3: Boston’s Academic Gems
Next stop: Boston, where the lucky attendees will enjoy two nights at the Four Seasons Hotel Boston. They’ll explore the groundbreaking campuses of Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), capped off by a ritzy dinner at Deuxave.
Day 4: The Final Destination
The tour culminates with a visit to Georgetown University in the nation’s capital, replete with a delightful meal at the celebrated Le Diplomate before jetting back to New York.
VIP Perks and Personalized Guidance
Luxury doesn’t stop at travel. Attendees will benefit from private tarmac pickups and chauffeured rides in high-end cars. Each family will also receive stylish designer luggage to enhance their travel experience.
Expert Advice Every Step of the Way
One of the key selling points of the Elevation Experience is the personalized academic guidance. IvyWise counselor Christine Chu, a former assistant director of admissions at Yale and Georgetown, will accompany the group, ensuring students ask the right questions and fully engage during each campus visit.
Post-Tour Support: Beyond the Journey
But the experience doesn’t end when the plane lands back in New York. IvyWise staff will assist with college applications, essay writing, and interview preparation, ensuring students are well-equipped to secure their spots at their dream institutions.
Eliminating the Stress of College Visits
Dr. Kat Cohen, the CEO and founder of IvyWise, highlights the need for such a luxury offering: “Many families tell us college visits are one of the most stressful parts of the admissions process. This service takes the hassle out of planning and allows families to focus on what truly matters: finding the right fit for the student.”
Looking Ahead: Expanding Horizons
The launch of the Elevation Experience is just the beginning. Dr. Cohen has hinted at plans for an international tour set for spring 2026, showing that IvyWise is poised to revolutionize college visits on a global scale.
Conclusion: A Unique Opportunity Awaits
In a world where college admissions are increasingly competitive, IvyWise is stepping up with a unique blend of luxury and academic guidance. This high-end campus tour may cost as much as a traditional Ivy League degree, but for many, the experience could be priceless.
Whether you’re a high school student eager to gain admission or a parent seeking to ease anxiety over the college application process, the Elevation Experience promises a journey of opulence and enlightenment—minus the stress (well, except for the SATs).
