Tushar’s intro

Hey, I’m Tushar, an EECS student at UC Berkeley. I’ve conducted research connected with Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, and UPENN in AI-powered cancer diagnosis, brain tumor detection, and scientific computing. I was also a CocaCola Scholars Semifinalist, and my robotics team won first place in its division at the 2026 FIRST Tech Challenge World Championship. I’ve helped students gain admission to Yale and Duke by helping them express themselves in a distinctive, authentic way that captures the reader’s attention.

Before you book

What does this cost?

We are flexible, and there is a plan here that fits your family. You hear your number on the first call, before anything is agreed. What changes between plans is the kind of experience in the room: a current undergraduate at a school your student is applying to, someone who interviewed applicants for a university as an alumni volunteer, or a former admissions officer who read files and sat in committee. Every one of them is somebody we would put in front of our own family.

Do we need to know what we want before the call?

No, and most families book before they have decided anything. That is the useful time to talk. An hour, no charge, and you will come off the call knowing what we can do for your student.

How many students does one counselor take?

Few enough that the person you meet is the person who reads the drafts. Every counselor sets their own cap and prints it on their page, so you know exactly how much of their year you are getting. If your first choice is full we will introduce you to someone on the roster who suits your student just as well.

Our student is already a senior. Is it too late?

It is not too late. Several counselors here run compressed engagements and take seniors into the autumn, and there is usually more still open in a file than a family expects. Tell us where your student is on the call and we will tell you what we can do with it.

Book a call

How the call is booked.

Tushar books the call, and it runs an hour on the phone.

Book a free call with Tushar

Tushar works from what you tell us about your student, so the call starts there rather than at the beginning.

If something changes

The agreement is held by The Scholar’s Bureau rather than by Tushar personally. If Tushar cannot finish the cycle we move your student to another counselor on this roster at the price you were already quoted, and everything written down so far moves with them.

The Scholar’s Bureau is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by UC Berkeley or any other institution named on this page. Tushar Mehta is an undergraduate at UC Berkeley, speaking only as an individual, with no role in its admissions office and no influence over any admissions decision.
