Empowerly College Counseling

My son is currently a sophomore at a high school in the San Francisco Bay Area and has been working with Empowerly since his freshman year. Empowerly has developed a well-structured, four-year program tailored to his high school journey. After discussing his interests and future goals, they clearly defined the courses he should take each year. Our counselor meets with us regularly to track his progress and provide insightful guidance to help him excel in his focus areas. Empowerly also offers a vast resource bank for extracurricular activities, and our counselor has been instrumental in helping us utilize these resources effectively. Overall, we are very satisfied with our son’s progress and look forward to continuing with Empowerly in the coming years.

As a current senior, the college application process was very overwhelming for me and I started much later than I should have. I joined Empowerly in October, and my counselor helped me immediately start on my application essays. I was able to meet all of my Early Action deadlines thanks to the guidance and support I received from not only my counselor, but also other essay editors. Empowerly has so many helpful features for its students, such as a large database with internship & scholarship opportunities, fast essay-editing, and the opportunity to have my complete application reviewed by their team. I was accepted into my dream school and am so happy I chose Empowerly!

As a senior, starting college applications was rather nerve-wrecking and I felt lost on where to start. Empowerly was the extra push and support that I needed! My counselors have been very involved and helpful, they really valued a one-on-one bond with me while making sure that I stayed on the right track during the process. My current counselor is super helpful with essay suggestions and making sure my application, as a whole, is thoroughly written. The essay editing service is also super helpful outside of counseling, I use it frequently.

I really love working with Empowerly. I have been able to get so much done and my counselor has helped me incredibly. I am so happy I got this opportunity and my experience has been great. I can't wait to expand on my journey through submitting college applications. This has been extremely useful and helpful. Without Empowerly, I wouldn't have been able to get as much done so I am very thankful. I would definitely encourage anyone to use this program.

Empowerly has helped me become a better student and achieve my dream school goals. The services that the Empowerly portal provides truly helped enhance my essays and overall application. I had the opportunity to work with two counselors, both of them have provided me with unconditional support and guidance through this journey!

Empowerly has been an incredible resource in my college application journey. The team is knowledgeable and supportive, , providing personalized guidance that truly made a difference. My counselor offered thoughtful feedback and helped make the process manageable and even enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Before working with Empowerly, we had no idea what we were doing or if we were on the right path. Within the first two sessions of meeting with Mr. Shahrukh, he gave my daughter a lot more insight and clarity on what her next steps should be and corrected our course. He quickly responds to our emails whenever we need support on an issue, and always makes sure the meetings are as productive as possible. With his support, we are feeling much more confident and relaxed in our application journey.

Raisa has been an exceptional counselor throughout my college application journey. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand me as an individual, allowing her to provide invaluable guidance on how to best showcase my experiences and personality in my essays and activities list. Her dedication to her students is unmatched—she went above and beyond, even staying up past 1 AM to help me refine my essays and submit them on time. Raisa is not only passionate about her work but also highly responsive and incredibly knowledgeable. She always replied to my emails promptly, and her deep understanding of the college admissions process helped me present my strengths in the best light. She offered countless ideas on how to effectively convey my thoughts and thoroughly answer each essay prompt, ensuring that my responses reflected multiple dimensions of who I am. Her enthusiasm and commitment to helping students find the best college fit were evident throughout the entire process. She also helped me stay ahead of deadlines, which significantly reduced my stress throughout the whole admission process. Thanks to her support, I felt confident and well-prepared at every stage of the application process. I also want to highlight the excellent resources available through Empowerly. The essay editing service, in particular, provided detailed feedback from admissions officers. Additionally, the resource questions were always answered quickly and thoughtfully, with expert insights that helped guide my decisions. Thanks to Raisa and Empowerly, I felt fully supported throughout my college admissions process, and I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking expert guidance and unwavering support.
