Karen Kimball Comes Highly Recommended!!

We have two daughters, and for each one, we partnered with Collegewise, experiencing outstanding results with Karen Kimball in distinct ways.Karen wasn’t the first counselor assigned to our eldest daughtershe was brought in as a replacement to steer things back on track. She excelled so much that we specifically asked for her assistance with our younger child.Serving as the primary counselor for our thoughtful 17-year-old, Karen was exceptional. The main hurdle wasn’t her motivation but encouraging our daughter to open up and confidently present herself. The rapport they built allowed our introspective daughter to overcome her hesitations and, under Karens guidance, craft impressive personal statements and supplementary essays that truly highlighted her strengths for the first time.Given that our daughters have contrasting personalitiesone extroverted and the other introverteda compatible counselor was crucial. We initially thought we would need different counselors for each, but Karen adeptly connected with both. Her blend of expertise, composure, intelligence, and humor resonates with teenagers and genuinely inspires them. Whether it was assisting our older daughter in organizing and motivating or connecting effectively with our younger one, Karen’s ability to understand each uniquely was exactly what we sought from Collegewise.Throughout both processes, Karen kept us informed about progress on key milestones while skillfully respecting our daughters’ desires to manage the process and retain some independence. We wholeheartedly recommend Karen without any hesitations!
