About Me

Jodi Furman, our founder and Lead Admissions Consultant, has worked as an independent admissions advisor for both college and graduate school (MBA, JD, MD) applicants for well over a decade. She is the former Director of Operations for one of the nation’s largest test prep firms and has years of experience as an executive recruiter, placing C-Suite executives.

She enjoys working with students of all academic abilities and has helped students to gain admission to schools ranging from highly selective, Ivy League universities to private, state, and international universities. She drills down to determine what students and families want in a school: academic rigor, major, and location. With an eye on finances, Jodi sheds light on both merit and need based aid, if applicable. Most importantly, Jodi is looking for the right FIT for your student.

Her goal is to demystify the whole application process, helping students craft a cohesive and compelling application with interesting and unique essays, garnering the admission committee's attention.

Jodi holds a Bachelor’s in Business Administration from The University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and an MBA from Columbia Business School in New York, NY. She also holds a certificate from the College Advising Program at Teachers College, Columbia University. In her free time, she enjoys glamping with her family and dogs and watching both hockey and college basketball.
