Aida Rocci

Aida Rocci has been guiding students through the university application process since 2019, working as a college counsellor, essay specialist, and tutor. Originally from Spain, Aida brings first-hand insight into the complexities of international admissions, which fuels her commitment to supporting students from diverse global backgrounds.

With her education in Psychology from Harvard University (Magna Cum Laude, Highest Honors), counselling techniques from UC Irvine, and advanced degrees in Dramaturgy from Harvard and the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, Aida offers a uniquely holistic and creative approach to university counselling. Her students develop strong organisational and decision-making skills, and learn how to communicate their authentic voice through compelling personal statements and essays.

Aida works with both undergraduate applicants and transfer students applying to universities in the US, UK, Canada, and Europe, while providing counselling and essay support to schools such as Oundle, Oakham, Downe House, UCS and Habs. She currently serves as the International University Advisor of Wetherby Senior School. Her students have gone to attend institutions like Princeton, UCBerkeley, Duke, and Bocconi.

Aida's broad academic and professional background—as a former Harvard teaching assistant, professional theatre director, and dramaturg—makes her particularly effective in mentoring students with interests in the arts, humanities, business, and interdisciplinary fields. She specialises in helping students articulate their passions, refine their voice, and craft standout applications for competitive global universities.
