Imperial Admissions – Top Imperial Advisers

Which tutor profile on The Profs best suits applicants with different academic backgrounds?

Our matching dashboard filters every Imperial admissions tutor by faculty, degree, research interests and teaching awards. Prospective students for Engineering MSc, Physics or Bioengineering usually pick tutors who hold an Imperial College London PhD and lecture in the relevant department. Candidates switching discipline, for instance from Mathematics to Computing, often prefer personal tutors with cross-faculty experience. Transparent profiles show degree history, staff position and verified DBS status, helping families choose within minutes.  

What subject expertise do The Profs’ tutors bring to strengthening personal statements?

More than 95 % of our tutors hold postgraduate or doctoral qualifications, so they translate laboratory, fieldwork and industrial insight into concise, evidence-rich paragraphs. One chemistry applicant raised statement clarity from 32 % to 80 % in two sessions after working with a senior tutor who teaches on Imperial’s Application and Interview Programme.  

How does a tutor from The Profs track your progress?

After each lesson your tutor records attainment on a secure dashboard, tags files, and schedules automated reminders.
