The application was not a walk in the park – especially with US Colleges. What I liked most about CollegeCore was obviously how they tailored my experiences to include all aspects of my interests and surround it around the theme of water and community, but also how they encouraged me throughout the process. The start of the process was quite rough for me but every time, I had my personal cheerleaders – my counsellors, to pick me up and say – ‘hey you got this’. This not only kept my morale up but helped me achieve my dream of studying at a top university – known for my major and allowed for major flexibility which is what I was looking for.
A wow moment was how my counsellor reacted when I kept switching my majors and my country of choice. Probably the most indecisive person the team has worked with, I kept oscillating between US and UK, and how my counsellor got on a call – no matter what time or day it was to tend to my indecisiveness. The way the team dealt with and accommodated my experience during the application process was fabulous. Adding on, the way they helped me focus my activities around a theme was magical – bringing out my love for the water, while also showing major specific attributes.
