Hello everyone!
Thank you for applying to IVY Bridge 4! We had about 80 applications in total and gave spots to only 12 students from the application pool. Many factors played a role in our decision.
We will announce the opening of Ivy Bridge 5 sometime next month! Until then, we recommend everyone focus on their studies, whether it's A Levels, SAT, or IELTS, and work on their portfolio overall.
We will announce applications to both Ivy Bridge and Full Support next month.

Full Ride to UToronto with Lester B Scholarship
This is a student I have been mentoring for 2 years! The one student I would boast about all of last year. But once we couldn’t secure a spot at their top choice we didn’t give up. We kept trying and we finally did it! Full ride after 2 gap years.
We worked on the entire app for countless days and nights. What an achievement!
A huge shoutout to Abdulloh Erkinov, who played a crucial role in guiding through the University of Toronto application process, including the Lester B. Pearson Scholarship. Meanwhile, Of course, this success wouldn’t have been possible without the support of all the other mentors as well.
We did it ladies and gentlemen! I’ll share some videos and pictures of us opening decisions from last year soon!

Ivy Bridge 5 for Summer 2025
As previously announced, we have reformatted our admissions course; it’s no longer a usual college admissions course where participants are familiarized with the process, and taught how to approach each component of their applications.
It’s now academically enriching “process” in the first place, with a heavy emphasis on select literature, critical and analytical thinking, creativity, and advanced writing on top of the ins and outs of the admissions process.
From the previous Ivy Bridge Courses, we had students getting into Harvard, Brown, Duke, Harvard, Vanderbilt, Colby, Denison, Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar, UToronto, NYUAD (2x) , DKU (3x), and NYUSH (3x).
The deadline to apply is May 10, but we’ll be selecting candidates on a rolling basis (first come, first serve).

Full Ride to Wesleyan University
Ruhshona has been accepted into Wesleyan University with a full-ride scholarship, where she will majoring in Government and minor in Human Rights Advocacy. As senior at James Madison High School, she applied without submitting SAT scores. However, she has excelled in 7 AP courses throughout high school and is ranked in the top 10% of her class. It's also worth noting that she applied as an international student!
Ruhshona has been actively involved in various extracurriculars throughout high school. She played on the girls' soccer teams at both James Madison High School and John Dewey. Additionally, she participated in Mock Trial and We the People. In fact, she's currently in Washington, D.C., for the We the People Championship, where her team, having won statewide, is now representing New York in the national competition.
At first, Ruhshona struggled with impostor syndrome, doubting her ability to get into top universities because she didn’t feel “perfect.” But after countless sleepless nights and hundreds of essay revisions, she managed to secure full-ride offers from both Connecticut College and Wesleyan University. She worked one-on-one with us to improve her essays and refine her entire application.
Like many girls in Uzbekistan, Ruhshona initially thought she couldn’t apply to out-of-state schools because her parents wouldn’t allow it. I told her to first get accepted, then work on convincing her parents. Now, with their support, she will be attending Wesleyan on a full ride. Ruhshona’s story is an inspiration to thousands of girls out there: if you think your parents won’t let you study abroad, first get into a top university, and then convince them!
We wish Ruhshona the best of luck in her future endeavors!

Full RIde to Colby College
I first met Said when he was juggling work and preparing for the IELTS exam. He was freelancing on KWork, managing social media, providing IT support.
Said goes to Samarkand Public School #51. His achievements include an IELTS score of 8.0 and a 1550 on the SAT. He competed professionally in swimming across Uzbekistan, frequently placing first in regional competitions. Beyond that, he freelanced to help his family, worked in IT and social media, and published a research paper on treating phobias using VR glasses—a project closely tied to his personal essays. What made him standout is his Love For CATS!!! His personal statement was about his obsession with cats.
It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when he joined my Admissions Group. He took every Ivy Bridge course I taught and eventually enrolled in my Full Support program. Our relationship feels more like family than teacher and student. I loved working with him, whether we were pulling all-nighters for application deadlines or spending the entire month of December together. He also worked closely with mentors like Shakhnoza (Princeton ’24), Sukhrob (USF ’26), and Sulaiman (Duke ’28). It was a real team effort, with Said at the center and the rest of us along for the ride.
Now, he’s headed to Colby College to study Computer Science and Psychology. Congratulations, Said—B&S Admissions Team can’t wait to see what you do next!

Public School to Full Ride at Duke University
Coming from a Public School in Tashkent, Khusan is now headed to Duke University with a full scholarship and will major in Economics and Public Policy. Per his academics, Khusan has SAT 1530 and will be taking 5 AP Exams next month.
But what makes him stand out is not his academic stats; he has a passion for studying developmental economics and has done research on income/wealth inequality. He is also passionate about social entrepreneurship and has an EdTech Startup. He was also involved in the Marketing Association of Uzbekistan.
To top it all off, he is a student athlete, although not a recruited athlete. He and his team became double Champions of Asia and Oceania, marking the debut for our national team in the World Cup in 2025.
His journey with B&S Admissions started when he joined IVY Bridge 3 in August, then subsequently joined our Full Support, where he worked closely with Sukhrob Murodov and Bobirjon Bakhtiyorov, with the mentors’ relevant background in Economics and Political Science respectively being a perk while Khusan was reflecting on ideas and putting them on paper.
At the end of the day, we are glad to be a part of his journey. He was accepted to both Vanderbilt and Duke University and will be heading to join the Duke Devils in August. Good Luck Khusan! Go do big things

Aydos Kitaybekov, from Nukus Presidential School, is headed to Brown University with a full scholarship, where he will pursue a double major in Environmental Engineering and Computer Science.
Academically outstanding, Aydos achieved an impressive IELTS score of 8, an SAT score of 1550, and triple A grades in his AS Levels. His journey with us began in April 2024 through the Ivy Bridge 2 program, after which he advanced to our Full Support program.

Aydos has actively participated in numerous environmental initiatives, particularly demonstrating a strong commitment to addressing the challenges of the Aral Sea. Beyond his academic pursuits, Aydos finds joy and solace in playing the dutar, an activity that keeps him connected to his cultural heritage and helps manage stress. He is also passionate about AI and would like to explore this at Brown's Open Curriculum.
