Lindsay Petry

Founder

​

After completing her Master's degree from Cornell University, Lindsay began working in admissions at an Ivy League institution. While working in undergraduate admissions, Lindsay quickly realized the admissions process is shrouded in mystery. Institutions are often unclear about what they consider an 'ideal candidate,' and qualified applicants frequently miss the mark with their application portfolio.

 

Recognizing the need for more transparency in the application process, Lindsay decided to create Optimal Admissions, LLC and use her experience to help applicants navigate the college admissions process successfully.
