Joyce Smith and Empowerly are wonderful The resources available at Empowerly are very helpful, but my favorite part about this program is the honesty that everyone in this program works with. My counselor Mrs. Joyce Smith is amazing at picking apart her students and finding their strengths that colleges will fight for. She will tell you when an essay is not working well or where your application is lacking, but when she compliments your work, you know that she genuinely means it. In my past experiences, many tend to sugarcoat, but honesty like hers are what will get students into competitive universities. I have received acceptances into honors programs at UT Austin, Pomona College, and top scholarships to TCU with her help.

Daniel Malki was an excellent counselor… Daniel Malki was an excellent counselor who helped me navigate the college admission process. In my time with him, he was able to help me tactifully revise my essays to ensure that I was able to put my strongest foot forward. However, the most impressive aspect would be Malki's constant push on me, where thanks to him I was able to submit with confidence and subsequently get admitted to an ivy with that very confidence. However apart from Malki, the website had a few issues such as my meetings being erased from the system. Nonetheless, Malkis counseling made up for the negatives.

Empowerly is a great counseling… Empowerly is a great counseling service! My counselor, Ms. Raisa, guided me in being admitted to various top choices of mine including UC Berkeley! Her feedback regarding each supplemental essay and support throughout this entire process has allowed my admission journey to be so much smoother!

Thank you Empowerly and Mr. Ronnie Medure! Empowerly's services helped me greatly throughout my college application process with all of their support and resources. My counselor, Mr. Ronnie Medure, helped me get into the colleges I was aiming for and expertly guided me as I crafted my essays and extracurricular portfolio. With their assistance, I was able to get into many colleges like UC Berkeley, UC Santa Barbara, University of Washington, etc. I highly recommend their services to anyone who is looking for college counseling!

An Incredible Resource! Empowerly was an incredible resource during my high school planning and college application process. I have been with Empowerly since my freshman year of high school, and my counselors Brooke and Raisa were extremely helpful when it came to navigating everything from high school course planning to summer program opportunities to college applications. The college application process would have been very overwhelming, but my counselors’ support in brainstorming and planning my essays, alongside Empowerly’s amazing essay-editing team, was a tremendous help and made the process so much less burdensome. I am currently a senior and will be attending my dream school in the fall, and I can confidently say that Empowerly helped me achieve that!
