About Us
Authentic Admissions
Given the recent negative press about college admissions, its important to distinguish the good actors from the bad. At its core, The Admissions Angle helps students to represent the best versions of themselves and is committed to a fair and honest process. No shortcuts. Luckily, the admissions landscape is starting to reward student applicants that show authenticity and an awareness of privilege.
Regardless of background, the road to a student’s dream school is littered with obstacles and requires hard work from everyone involved: parents, teachers, counselors and the students. It takes a village, right? And the best way to spread out the work and start off in the right direction is mentorship.


The Admissions Angle does things differently
- We are not product-based and we do not charge by the hour. We are committed to putting forth the best quality results, regardless of how much work is involved.
- We believe in playing to a students’ existing strengths and interests rather than attempting to make them fit into an archetype. We will never tell students to give up the activities they love.
- We emphasize the value of supporting local communities. We believe that civic involvement breeds excellent citizens and excellent candidates for top colleges, and will help students find unique and genuine ways to serve their communities.
- We are limited to a select number of students each year so that Alex can be personally involved with each application. We will never pass your student off to an intern or a college student.

Executive Director
Alex Loveless
After graduating from Villanova University with a BS in Mathematics, Alex moved to Seoul, Korea, where he spent a combined nine years in test prep and college admissions consulting. As a Managing Director of one of the top boutique college consulting firms in Seoul’s exclusive Apgujeong neighborhood, Alex was responsible for helping high-performing students gain admission to the Ivy League+ in one of the most competitive applicant pools that exists in the world. His responsibilities included managing/training the entire college admissions team, leading the company’s annual admissions strategy, and working one-on-one with his own personal students.
Now based in America, Alex is committed to sharing his experience and expertise with domestic and international students alike. His educational philosophy is one that allows students to use their unique personalities and interests to craft a college application that is both highly personal and competitive. Alex believes that students should not be limited by their own expectations and encourages them to reach high, far, and wide on their college lists. Moreover, he understands the unique challenges of combating race and gender stereotypes that plague the admissions process and helps craft applications that take these challenges into account.
Alex works with students throughout all stages of the high school experience but believes that the earlier a student begins with an admissions strategy, the better the odds are of admission to a top college. He supports a flexible, holistic approach to admissions and above all, advises students to be themselves.
Academic Director
Noelle Compton
Noelle Compton graduated from the University of Colorado with degrees in English Writing and Philosophy. She then moved to South Korea, where she worked in SAT preparation and educational materials development before working for the Korean government as part of the agricultural international development team. Later, she was recruited as an academic director and writing specialist at an elite college consulting group in Gangnam.
Writing is Noelle’s greatest strength and passion. She works with students to cultivate their writing skills across academic disciplines and believes that written expression is a skill that extends well beyond the college application process. Her educational philosophy is all about encouraging students to use their authentic voices to tell their stories, engage with the community, and connect with others.
