Wendy Thompson, Your Personal College Counselor
My background in college admissions includes twelve years on the Bowdoin College staff. There, I evaluated over 10,000 applications and over 20,000 essays, and conducted hundreds of interviews. With many years of admissions experience, I know what colleges look for in candidates. Whether I am doing a mock interview or reviewing your college applications, it is always with the eyes of a college admissions officer.
I charge by the hour and tailor services to your wants and needs. My services include the following:
- Creating a college list based on your academic and extracurricular profile, personality, and career goals and my knowledge of the current college admissions landscape
- Providing feedback on your college application essays and the activities list
- Giving advice regarding teacher recommendations
- Conducting practice interviews
- Advising you regarding high school course selection, standardized testing plans, and test-optional colleges
- Creating a monthly college planning calendar and a college tracker with application requirements and deadlines
From the initial college search to crafting the application to the final college choice, I can help you navigate this next step in your life.
