"You have been such a blessing throughout my application process, and I am so grateful I had you to help along the way! I’m so excited to start my college career :)" - M.H., LIM College

"I still remember that talk you had with me when you came over for the first time really helped me turn things around for me and want to do better in school, so you definitely have helped me so much along with the rest of the process." - S.H., Cal Poly Pomona

"Thanks for all the help Chelese, you’re seriously a life changer."  - A.H.

Chelese Belmont has been one of the most influential people in my academic career. In the three years that I worked with her, she taught me important organizational skills, study methods, and how to clearly express my thoughts in an analytical essay. Not only has she helped me succeed academically and reach my full potential, but she has also restored my love of learning and my intellectual curiosity with her enthusiasm, encouragement, and intelligence. I am forever grateful for Chelese’s investment in me as a student and as a person for the duration of my high school career and higher education.

- C.B., who received a full ride to Duke University.

Student Life
Student Paper Writing

Chelese has played a key role in my successes throughout my high school career and has just as importantly helped me through my failures. She is the reason that I am the writer I am today;  throughout my three years spent working with her, she helped me to tackle advanced writing techniques in order to express my ideas in the most eloquent ways possible. Her academic guidance has been so formative in my development as an eager and confident student, and Chelese's approach to tutoring is unlike anyone else's; she helped me get to the answers myself and kept me on top of my work, while maintaining a down-to-earth and open attitude the whole time. I couldn't have done it without her!

- P.K., Dartmouth College

Chelese was extremely helpful in getting me into some of my dream schools. She helped me make a schedule for all my application elements and stick to it, all while being super supportive and encouraging! I truly believe I wouldn’t have made it through college apps without her.

If I had never met Chelese Belmont, I would not be where I am today. I was a C-average student in high school, and Chelese molded and developed me into someone who is capable of receiving mostly A's in my college courses. Chelese goes out of her way to make sure whomever she is working with achieves the best they can. I still keep in touch with her today because she not only paved my way to a brighter future, but she also provided me with mentorship that I could not find anywhere else. I am so grateful I met this incredible person who inspires me and who I look up to. 

- G.S., Combined Bachelors & Masters at The New School and went onto receive a PhD!

When I decided to embark on a new phase in my life, I began the daunting process of applying to a highly competitive doctoral program.  Given that it was a new and innovative program accepting only 14 applicants, it was important that my application, statement of research interest, personal statement, and resume stood out amongst the hundreds of applicants. Chelese Belmont was able to help me narrow my focus, as she got into my mind and intentions and helped me formulate an application set that was superior.  I am happy to say that with Chelese's help, I was accepted and just completed my first semester of my new journey. I look forward to her continued support as I begin the dissertation process.

- R.O., Doctorate from San Jose State University
