Lead with career
Not college

Students figure out what they want to do first, then build the plan to get there. We start in 6th grade, and one bilingual team keeps families, schools, and colleges on the same plan.

We know how the other side works

Our team has worked in admissions offices, financial aid offices, and community colleges.

Empowered truly understands the admissions process and has deep knowledge of colleges nationwide. My son applied to schools we’d never heard of before—schools Empowered suggested we visit, and we loved them.

Mary, Parent

Empowered is a tremendous resource for districts looking to strengthen college admissions support and help students reach their post-secondary goals. Empowered helped us build a clear blueprint and practical toolkit.

Danelle, District Partner

Empowered advising really works. One of my kids said they wouldn’t have gotten into college so easily without it. Another earned a full-tuition scholarship to Santa Clara University and credits Empowered’s help in refining their applications.

Mike, Parent

Empowered stepped in and made the process a pleasant one for both of us. They helped keep my son on schedule with deadlines and helped us navigate this complicated process with minimal stress.
