Lumen - Get into your dream university

At Lumen, we’re more than just academic coaches — we’re partners in your journey to top universities. For over 7 years, we’ve helped ambitious students from around the world get into their dream schools, with 94% of our students admitted to one of their top 3 university choices.

Our approach is fully personalized and rooted in 1:1 mentorship. You’ll work closely with experienced educators and Ivy League graduates who’ve walked this path themselves — from your first brainstorming session to the moment you hit "submit."

Whether you're aiming for the Ivy League, Oxbridge, or a top European program, we’ll guide you every step of the way — with clarity, care, and strategy that works.
