About Crimson Rise
Rise is an intensive skills development and profile-building program for students aged 11-14, designed to cultivate the abilities and experiences your child needs to be successful in high school, university, and beyond.
We equip our students to discover their best-fit extracurriculars, define their passions, and develop academic and soft skills—all with an eye towards winning admission to a top university.
What We Do
Accelerate Academics
Students receive accelerated 1:1 tutoring and strategic guidance to propel academic performance, including targeted support on 4-year course planning, revision and test-taking technique, independent research projects, and much more.
Drive Standout Extracurriculars
Innovative, stand-out extracurricular profiles are Crimson’s specialty. Our students receive granular, 1:1 extracurricular mentorship on landing leadership positions, competition placement, and shadowing or internship opportunities, in addition to start-to-finish guidance on developing original capstone projects that demonstrate passion, commitment, and above-grade project management skills.
Define Passions
Our programs emphasize 1:1 mentorship to clarify student passions, whether through crafting an elevator pitch, writing a personal statement, writing career analyses, conducting academic research, or delivering for high-level public speaking engagements.
Develop Soft Skills
Concerned about your child’s organization, goal-setting, self management, or communication skills? We incorporate fundamental skills development into the overarching Rise experience by having our students plan private events, prepare public presentations for peers, organize their digital and personal spaces, and develop personalized time and task management systems.
Build Confidence
All Rise students benefit from having 1:1 mentorship and a team fully committed to the student’s personal growth. Throughout our activities, our students are taught to recognize, apply, and expand their natural strengths; our strategy team draws from constructivism, inquiry-based learning, and educational methods like Socratic questioning which have successfully raised confident, critical thinkers for hundreds of years.
Crush University Admissions
Every project, topic, and skills focus in the Rise program prepares students to excel in the university admissions process. Crimson’s admissions strategists are the best in the world, hailing from Stanford, Princeton, Yale, Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, and many more top universities, and their industry knowledge, combined with Rise’s expertise in child psychology, ensures our students have personalized, effective growth plans that will lead them toward their dream schools—no matter how early they start.
