“EmpowerED” is a website platform to empower counselors and high school students with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to navigate the challenging journey of college admissions. The website is committed to providing guidance that helps students overcome obstacles, make informed decisions, and confidently pursue their dreams of higher education. I aim to alleviate the stress and mental health challenges associated with the college admissions process by offering a comprehensive toolkit that fosters inclusivity and equal access to educational opportunities.
The website showcases diverse student voices from universities worldwide, offering insights into their application journeys before and after admission.
For me, there were definitely doubts and anxieties throughout my applications.
Looking at the statistics, focusing on narratives surrounding the specific universities, and comparing my progress to others can be very discouraging.
