As Seen On

















Independent Admissions Consultants for The Frederick Gunn School
Cardinal Education was established by Stanford alumnus Mr. Allen Koh nearly 20 years ago to help as many Asian American students find academic success as possible. We have been fortunate enough to have earned the trust of the families who have partnered with us by incorporating an honest, holistic, and discreet approach to the admissions process. Additionally, we have grown our consulting firm to an international scale, where many families from Ghana, Russia, Egypt, Indonesia, Singapore, China, UAE, India, Brazil, Oman, Nigeria, South Korea, the UK, and other countries contact us. Many of the students we have helped have gotten accepted into some of the most prestigious boarding schools, including Woodland School, Sacred Heart Preparatory, Phillips Exeter Academy, The Nueva School, and many more.
