Why would anyone dislike she is giving amazing content that really helps students out. She is so encouraging and gives us many resources. I honestly think I may be able to get in my dream school because of her. She really inspired me. Loveee your channel

[BlackTea]

Thank you so much! Im 12 and ive been looking at college application videos for a year now so that I have a headstart on things when im actually in high school. Your videos are so helpful!

[noorbarzinjy]

This video was very helpful for me cause I felt very lost as a high school student, thank you very much for helping❤️

[WinstonNewYork]

I can attest to how great the Cornell Precollege Summer Program is. And hard to think of any summer program more special.

[Ethan-scgq]

It's April in my junior year and I feel like I've wasted any summer opportunity i could possibly put towards my future. I keep hearing about these amazing programs at my dream schools that closed off applications in February, so I never had a chance to get in in the first place. Your advice about passion projects has really given me motivation, because I can pursue STEM interests even if I can't attend an official program.

[Misty-fgxk]

I'm 13 and starting highschool next year and I'm rlly trying to get into the college process already ! I think a head start is gonna benefit my future self a lot. This account is already really helping me and my process <3

This is amazing! With COVID-19 canceling my research program, I found something online!

[emejay]

This was really great information as someone who want to get into a niche area(architecture) it’s kinda hard to find out what extracurriculars or what things I can do during the summer this was a nice push in the right direction✌🏾😊
