Kathryn is an awesome admissions counselor, and person. She was so easy to work with.
I wanted to apply to only one school. Kathryn had worked with my wife to help her get into a top program and before that had helped her brother also get into a top school. So I was confident in her skill as an awesome counselor. I didn’t know she’d be such an awesome person, so easy to talk to and trust.
Kathryn helped me prepare everything and was there whenever I needed her. I told her that I am not a strong writer. She was incredible at listening to me and then taking my words and helping me write work that perfectly captured my intent. This was really hard work for me, but she made me feel at ease, even though I was just applying to one school.
When I got in, after telling my wife, Kathryn was the first person I told. I strongly recommend Kathryn to anyone trying to get into a top program. Kathryn holds you accountable. You will be glad because you learn more about yourself that way and that helps a lot when you’re in your interview and even, for me, at my work. I’ve become more confident and clear about my goals.
