Navigate Law School and College Admissions
Guidance for your admissions journey from an experienced admissions counselor and test prep instructor.
Unlike many Admissions Coaches, Megan Needham has lived every stage of the journey
Megan has experienced life as both an applicant and an attorney — earning a J.D. from Georgetown, serving as an editor for prestigious legal journals, and launching her career at Kirkland & Ellis in one of the country's top IP litigation practices. But her real passion is helping others navigate their own journey. For over a decade, she has guided hundreds of applicants through the law school and undergraduate admissions process, drawing on her experience as an Admissions and Recruitment Counselor, 16 years as an alumni interviewer for Georgetown Law, the developer and instructor of an LSAT course taught at two universities, and a writing fellow for college and graduate students. Whether you're preparing for the LSAT, crafting application essays, preparing for interviews, navigating waitlists, or searching for a legal job, Megan is here to help.

But that’s when we went back to the basics and I actually learned how to take the test. Megan became the best tutor and mentor I could ask for.
