About How To College
Navigating the college application process can be a challenging journey filled with a range of emotions. From excitement to anxiety, confidence to confusion, and feeling in-control to being overwhelmed, students go through it all.
Our founder, Natasha Parikh Agrawal graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 2017 with a Master’s degree in Biotechnology and a specialization in Regulatory Affairs. The years she spent at Hopkins were transformative, both personally and professionally. Natasha’s own college experience shaped her perspective, and she realized the importance of making informed decisions throughout the application process. Reflecting on her time at college, she recognized the impact of having the right guidance—from choosing the right college strategy to selecting courses, finding suitable housing, securing part-time scampus jobs, and even post-graduation job applications, she understood the significance of being well-prepared for college.
Motivated by this insight, Natasha started assisting friends and family with their college applications. It became evident that students applying to colleges abroad often lacked the necessary knowledge and support, making personalized guidance crucial. Each student’s application strategy had to be tailored to their unique profile, academic goals, financial aspirations, and long-term career objectives. The absence of personalized guidance hindered highly capable individuals from applying to top schools.
