I cannot express enough gratitude for Katheryn's unwavering guidance throughout my college application journey. Her expertise and dedication were instrumental in turning my dream of attending college into a reality.
Initially I was very concerned about where to even start for college with all the schools. I felt extremely disorganized with the sheer amount of it all. However thanks to my counselor Katheryn, she was able to provide me with a way to organize everything I needed and helped me get my thoughts and words across my essays. As a high schooler it’s hard to find a way to understand yourself but she really made it easier and made me feel more confident!
My college counselor has been amazing. She’s smart, very resourceful (so even if she doesn’t know something, she will learn) and has experience. Every session was highly personalized to my needs. She’s always quick to respond and makes sure I stay on track. What I really appreciate is that she didn’t do the work for me, but helped me realize my potential so I could do it myself. In addition to my parents, she was also my support system. She constantly checks in, kept me on track, and is always there when I need her. Even with the whole application process over with, she goes above and beyond and still stays in contact with me as I’m waiting to hear back about my college decisions.
OMG Katheryn is seriously the BEST college consultant ever!!! She stuck with me all the way from sophomore to senior year and totally saved me from freaking out during application season. She helped me figure out which extracurriculars actually mattered, gave awesome feedback on my essays (which needed A LOT of work lol), and always responded super fast whenever I panicked about deadlines. Thanks to her, I got into schools I never even knew about! If you're stressing about college apps, Katheryn is 100% worth it. So grateful I had her helping me through these past few years! 🙌
I would highly recommend Katheryn for any college counseling you need, she’s amazing and so sweet and so much fun to be around! She really helped a lot with figuring out and leading the college application system and really gave me my best shot for college acceptance.
Anyone can provide advice; what makes Katheryn stand out is her ability to cultivate crucial conversations. In asking the right questions, she brought meaning, and purpose to my educational journey. I recommend her to anyone navigating the pursuit of higher education.
Pave the Way is the keystone to my transfer success, helping me most effectively reflect my hard work and dedication in my college applications. Without the services I received (which included weekly meetings, countless reviews of my personal statement/PIQs, and a comprehensive analysis of how I could best present myself), I would have been almost completely lost in the application processes. As a California Community College transfer student, I didn't have the support many first-year applicants might have and needed serious hands-on support to ace my applications.
I have recommended Pave the Way to many of my peers and could not more highly recommend these services.
Katheryn was so patient with me and very knowledgable about what it takes to shine on a college application. I honestly don't think I would have had the success I did without her!
Working with Katheryn has been a game-changer for our son. Her personalized approach changed the overwhelming college application journey into a meaningful and empowering experience for him!
My husband and I knew very little about navigating the college application process. Katheryn was so good with our daughter...helping her with essays, activities and making sure she hit all her deadlines.
We are so appreciative of Katheryn's dedication to our son. She is extremely knowledgeable about the college world and helped our son get into many of the colleges he was aiming for.
