Services & pricing

One service. The price depends on where you start.

You get the whole quantitative side of the dissertation, from where you are now through your defense, from one person. Statistics and quantitative methods only: no qualitative coding, no literature reviews. Starting earlier costs more because there is more work in it, and it is also where the work saves you the most time.

Still deciding your topic or methodology

Flat rate$4,500

$3,375 fully async by email

The earliest start, and the one with the most room to improve the study and shorten your timeline. We shape questions your data can answer before anything is committed to a committee.

What's included

Methodology approved, data not collected yet

Flat rate$4,000

$3,000 fully async by email

Your design is agreed. We make sure the instruments, sampling, and power will produce data that answers it, then run everything when the data land.

What's included

Data collected, needs analysis

Flat rate$3,500

$2,625 fully async by email

The most common starting point. Screening, analysis, tables, interpretation, results chapter, and defense preparation.

What's included

Something else

PriceQuoted after we talk

Committee revisions, a failed defense, a stalled project, a second study, an analysis that came back wrong. Tell me what happened and I'll tell you what it takes.

What's included

What you get

The same support, wherever you join

Every engagement runs from your starting point to your defense, with one person accountable for all of it.

  • Methodology work: design, sampling, power analysis, instrument selection, and the written justifications your chair will ask for.
  • Data screening: missing data, assumptions, outliers, reliability, and the decisions each one forces.
  • The analyses your questions call for, run and documented, from descriptives through your primary models.
  • Clean tables and figures formatted for your style guide, in APA format with references.
  • Coaching at each stage, so you can say why each test was chosen and what the numbers mean.
  • A written plain-language summary of every result, in your terms, for you to draw on as you write.
  • Results chapter support: structure, tables, and language that reports findings without overclaiming.
  • Defense preparation, including a mock question session on your own results.
  • Every revision your committee asks for, before and after both defenses.

Starting point 1

Still deciding your topic or methodology

Flat rate$4,500

$3,375 fully async by email

  • A question your data can actually answer
  • A design your committee will approve the first time
  • The right data collected once, not twice
  • Fewer revision cycles, and each one costs a term

This costs the most, and it saves the most. Nothing is locked yet, so every improvement is still available: a sharper question, a design that will clear committee, instruments that measure what you actually need. Most delays I see are not statistics problems. They are questions, designs, and instruments that were never going to line up, discovered a year too late.

We work out what you actually want to know, what would count as an answer, and what it will take to get one. Then everything downstream is built on something solid.

Starting point 2

Methodology approved, data not collected yet

Flat rate$4,000

$3,000 fully async by email

  • Instruments and sampling checked before you commit
  • A power analysis your chair will accept
  • No discovering the fatal flaw after collection

Your design is approved, which settles the plan but not whether the plan will work. We check that the instruments measure what your questions need, that your sampling and power will support the analysis, and that the data you are about to gather will answer the question you were approved to ask.

Then I run the analysis when your data land, and stay with you through the results chapter and the defense.

Starting point 3

Data collected, needs analysis

Flat rate$3,500

$2,625 fully async by email

  • Analysis you can explain in your own words
  • Tables and figures ready for your style guide
  • A results chapter that does not overclaim
  • A defense you walk into knowing the answers

The most common place students find me. Your data are in, and the analysis is the wall. We screen the data, run what your questions call for, and go through every number until you can say why each choice was made.

You write the dissertation. I make sure the quantitative side is right, and that you can defend it without me in the room.

Starting point 4

Something else

PriceQuoted after we talk

Committee revisions you don't understand, a defense that did not go well, an analysis someone else ran that came back wrong, a project that has been stalled for two years. Send me what happened and I will tell you honestly what it takes, including when it is less than you feared.


Smaller option

Methods Review

Flat rate$400

For when you don't need the full engagement, just an experienced read on whether what you have will survive committee.

What's included

  • A close read of your proposal, methods chapter, or your committee's written feedback.
  • Written comments on design, sampling, instruments, and the analysis plan, with the reasoning, so the notes teach rather than just correct.
  • An honest assessment of whether your research questions and your planned analyses actually match.
  • Answers to your questions about the comments, in writing.
  • Specific next steps, including what to say to your chair.

Async option

Fully async by email, for 25% less

Every engagement can run entirely in writing. You send your questions when you have them, I answer in detail, and everything we decide stays written down where you can reread it. No scheduling, and nothing happening at your least productive hour.

It costs less because it takes less of my time, and it suits most working students better. The work itself is identical: same analysis, same coaching, same support through the defense. Live working sessions are part of the standard price, so choose that if you want them.


Flat rate

Flat rate means flat rate

Your number is agreed in writing before any work starts, and it covers the whole engagement. Extra analyses your committee asks for are included. Revisions after your proposal defense are included. Revisions after your final defense are included. There is no hourly meter and no second invoice.

Dissertations do not run to plan. Some need two rounds of revisions and some need six, and which one you get is mostly luck. The price is set on the average, so a hard path costs you nothing extra.

Guarantee

You approve the work before it's final

Every deliverable comes to you for review. If it doesn't meet the scope we agreed in writing, I revise it until it does. If I still can't make it right, you get your money back for that part of the work.

Once you review and approve a deliverable, it's final, and that part is no longer refundable.

AI and your data

Human-led, and your data stays with me

Every analysis decision and every piece of advice comes from me personally. Your data is never sent to an AI company: not a chatbot, not an AI-assisted analysis service, not for any reason.

Scope

What I don't do

This practice is quantitative only. I do not do qualitative analysis, interview coding, or literature reviews, and on a mixed-methods study I take the quantitative half. I do not write your dissertation, and I do not hand over results you cannot explain. That is the whole model: you stay involved, you learn the reasoning, and you own and defend your own work. A consultant who leaves you unable to answer a committee question has not helped you.

Working with a statistical consultant is an ordinary, ethical part of doctoral research, and most universities allow it, the same way they allow editors and writing centers. Check your own program's handbook. Whether you mention it to anyone is entirely your choice, and nothing here requires you to.


Not sure where you fit?

Most students aren't, before we talk. Send the intake form with whatever you have and I'll tell you honestly what the work involves, including if it's less than you thought.
