Meet Katie!

Working with Katie has made my college search and application process an amazing experience. I thoroughly enjoyed every meeting with her, and even had fun (not something you hear all the time from a teenager applying to colleges!). The Collegewise method and Katie's guidance was an integral part in making my application process manageable and successful. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to work with Katie and the editors who really helped me clarify and improve my main essay and supplemental essays with constructive feedback, which I believe made my applications much stronger.

Katie’s guidance and support helped us through what could’ve easily been a nightmare college application process. She made the experience very positive for our family. Her intuition, calm demeanor, and quiet direction turned everything around. Her message to Emery was consistent and unwavering: trust yourself. Katie led gently, but supported fiercely, and I had the pleasure of watching my daughter forge a unique path that feels just right for her. Katie gave the gift of pride and excitement to my daughter, and that's priceless.

Katie made the college application process easier than I ever could have imagined! She’s extremely knowledgeable and broke everything into clear, doable chunks, making for a smooth and easy process for my daughter. She covered the testing schedule, school choices, essay brainstorming, and application submissions. The biggest bonus for me was having a third party whom my daughter respected manage the process. Katie's knowledge is so impressive, I didn’t have to battle with my teenager at all. Katie made the journey seamless and allowed us to celebrate the milestones and victories. We cannot thank her enough for all of her help—we appreciate it immensely!

We could not be happier with Katie and Collegewise! We were dreading the college application process, and Katie made it an enjoyable experience. From the beginning, she made it all about our daughter and listened to who she was and what she wanted. She broke the application process down into small steps that made the process totally manageable—never overwhelming—and totally enjoyable. We highly recommend her to anyone who is going through the college search and application process. She is truly amazing!

I don’t think I could have survived the college application process without Katie! She kept me on track to finish my applications early, helped me write quality essays, managed the supplemental parts of my application, and kept my nerves in-check throughout the whole process. The thing I liked the most about working with Katie was that she made writing college essays so easy. I have trouble writing and coming up with ideas about myself, and Katie would ask me questions and pick out interesting topics out of our casual conversation. This made the writing process a million times easier because I had an outside source offering feedback and helping me structure and edit.
