Sheng Wen, College Counselor
During her tenure as a college counselor with Collegewise (and with multiple independent college planning firms previously), Sheng’s students have been admitted to a variety of colleges, including Columbia, Stanford, UCLA, UC San Diego, NYU, Carnegie Mellon, Washington University in St. Louis, Swarthmore, Amherst, Haverford, Boston University, and Northeastern. She also has deep experience with international admissions and has successfully placed students at multiple universities in the UK, Hong Kong, and Japan. Fluent in both English and Mandarin, Sheng specializes in creating tailored strategies that highlight each student’s strengths while providing comprehensive support throughout their journey.
Sheng’s students come from a variety of educational backgrounds and curriculums, from AP (Advanced Placement) and IB (International Baccalaureate) to A-levels and hybrid systems. She prides herself on her ability to achieve successful outcomes with her students while also making them feel supported every step of the way and keeping the experience as stress-free as possible.
A deeply passionate connoisseur of the performing arts, Sheng is also an equal-opportunity artistic enjoyer—she loves playing mahjong, collecting kitschy vintage t-shirts, and reading over-the-top romance paperbacks.
