The tool aims to make college counselling sessions available to everyone.
— Waystone College Counselor today announced the launch of its college admissions intelligence platform, a tool built to help students understand their own story and present it well — rather than chase a number or a ranking. The service aims to make private college counselling sessions available to everyone, which can cost up to $6,450 on average according to the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA).
Most students approach college applications with a patchwork of advice: rankings lists, one-size-fits-all essay templates, and checklists that treat every applicant the same. Waystone College Counselor instead builds a complete picture of each student — GPA, intended career and degree path, extracurricular activities, and academic record — and uses it to help the student understand and build a coherent narrative, close any gaps between that narrative and their goals, and find the essay ideas only their story can produce.
“Students don’t need another tool telling them the odds,” said Tim Green, CEO at Waystone. “They need help understanding the story their profile is already telling, where it doesn’t line up with what they say they want to do, and how to close that gap before it’s too late to do anything about it.”
Private college counsellors can charge between $3,000 and $10,000 for basic advice and extra for test prep and campus visits. Unfortunately, many families feel they have to pay for these services or miss out on bespoke advice and guidance. Researching tools, tracking deadlines, and understanding financial aid can consume hundreds of hours for many families. And with over 4,000 colleges in the United States, building a framework for a teen’s specific goal is challenging.
Fortunately, Waystone’s new AI platform crunches the data automatically, evaluating a teen’s GPA and SAT scores, relevant coursework, and their career preferences (nursing, cybercrime, data analyst, etc.) At the end, they get a full analysis, including a tiered school report, activity gap report, and SAT strategy with Waystone’s intelligence platform providing them with clear next steps based on the best available data. They receive top action priorities, multiple essay angles, and career and degree alignment advice.
