"Dream.  Master.  Create."

Welcome to MC Advising! I am José Iván Román, Founder. I utilize my natural abilities, professional training, and lived experiences to nurture student intellect, creativity, confidence, and self-expression. I treasure my advisees’  diverse backgrounds and learning styles.​​

​

It takes a village to support our youth along the journey of personal development. I am proud to serve as leader in a village that reveres authenticity of self, mastery of craft, and love for humanity. Each of us has our own path to walk; however, we are never alone. We have community. I feel deeply honored when my advisees say: “You see me.”


MC Advising offers services that complement the work of our schools' guidance counselors, academic advisors, college counselors, coaches, and staff mentors. As Student Mentor and Scholastic Advisor, I provide valuable guidance for success in college admissions and post-secondary career planning. My expertise as College Admissions Counselor makes me an authority on the nuances of the undergraduate admissions process in the United States of America.​

​

Intuition is a central feature in my brand of advising. Intuition may be described as inner knowing that is independent of the ego. I encourage advisees to connect with intuition as their inner guidance system. Being aligned with our inner guidance empowers us to take inspired action in our lives. ​My intuitive abilities help guide discussions. I listen carefully to my advisees. My listening is active AND receptive. Professional training, lived experiences, and intuition shape my unique holistic review of college admissions applications.

​

I am pleased to highlight the following areas in my professional background:​

  • Developmental Academic Advising (College Student Development Theory)

  • Undergraduate Academic Advising

Thank you for connecting with me along your journey. We are the heroes of our own stories.  Dream.  Master.  Create.
