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.

Recommend Mr Medure Mr. Ronnie Medure helped my daughter get into CMU Engineering! Thank you for all the guidance, support, and positivity throughout the college application process.

I joined Empowerly in sophomore I joined Empowerly in sophomore. My counselor, Shahrukh Malik, has given me many valuable insights on how to plan my summer program, course selection and activity list. His guidance is helping me planning for the whole process. He is very responsive and patiently answers all my questions.

Super personalized and willing to help Their one-on-one sessions were very helpful to keep me on the right track and they were always open to answer whatever questions I had. My sessions with their counselor, Raisa, have been very enlightening. She has taught me a lot about the process and always has my best interests in mind - she does not try to drag things out and is ready to provide me with any resources I might need!
