MEET THE COLLEGE GURU™️

Hi! I’m Geanine Thompson, also known as The College Guru™️.

I’m obsessed with all things related to college admissions, access, and the application process! I work remotely with high school students throughout the country.

For over a decade, I have been working with families, like yours, to help them successfully navigate the college admissions process. It is my superpower. And I can help your child find his/hers/theirs!

 My students have been accepted to competitive schools such as:

 Do any of these scenarios sound familiar?

  • My son doesn’t want to hear anything I have to say about applying to college

  • I attended a top school, but it’s so different now; I no longer know what colleges are looking for

  • My daughter attends a competitive high school, yet the counselor doesn’t have the bandwidth to give her personalized attention

  • I want my child to attend a good college although I didn’t, but I have no idea where to begin

  • It’s best for my relationship with my kid that I let an expert help manage this process so I can just focus on being a parent

Imagine seeing your child…

  • Gaining confidence during the college admissions process

  • Working on a personalized plan of proven strategies to manage coursework, choosing classes to improve college candidacy, and selecting best-fit activities

  • Creating a balanced college list of schools that match academic and social goals for the school environment best suited for your child’s needs

  • Writing stand out college essays that capture and hold the attention of the Admissions team

  • Receiving several offers of admissions from the schools of their choice!!!

  • Racing to post the fantastic news on Instagram and sharing with family, friends, and followers!!!

Would you like your child to have an empowering, successful, experience applying to college?

I work with a limited number of students, to better give my clients the attention this process requires. Let’s get you started today so you don’t miss out on a coveted spot and we can start planning!

 

Admissions Branding

Learn how to market yourself as a competitive, desirable applicant by formulating an authentic, compelling “brand story” and college admissions strategy.

Your College List

Create a balanced college list of likely, target, and reach schools, based on a college experience of your design.

 

Your College Essays

Create Common Application Personal Statements that will help you stand out by showing the Admissions Team who you are, what you value, and what you will contribute.

How to Begin

Schedule a complimentary consulting call to learn how we can best help you and your child.

 GETTING STARTED

Location is not an obstacle.

I work remotely with students throughout the country.

What To Expect

Your child has a short window of time to master what is actually a complicated and competitive process.

My goals are to:

  • Minimize stress for students and parents

  • Help students identify their best-fit school choices

  • Educate you on what is required to be a successful applicant

Contrary to popular belief and mythology, perfect grades and test scores do not guarantee admission.

In a sea of stellar GPAs and perfect test scores, your child needs a way to stand out from the crowd — a cohesive, highly individualized brand story is what is required for your child.

Our initial work will involve uncovering your child’s unique superpowers(s) and brand story.

I will help your teen conceptualize and create a compelling, authentic narrative. As I know through my experience and proven results, your brand is the key to standing out during the admissions reviews and the foundation for stellar essays. Everything flows from your unique brand and how convincingly you present it to your target schools.

“Your Brand Story is the key to college admissions success.”
