Real results.
Real families. Real schools.

"Empowered is an extraordinary resource for districts looking to strengthen admissions support. They helped us streamline processes across schools, align the district's vision, and create a clear action plan with practical tools for real results."

D

Danelle

School District Director

"GECA has partnered with Empowered since 2015 to inform families about the college process and support seniors through every stage of their applications. This partnership is now part of GECA's college-going culture."

S

Sonia

High School Principal, GECA

"Empowered's guidance really works. One of my daughters says she wouldn't have gotten into college as easily without their support. My other daughter earned a full tuition scholarship to Santa Clara University — Empowered's help perfecting her application made the difference."

M

Mike

Parent

"Empowered changed my life. At first, all the back and forth with my essays felt exhausting, but it was totally worth it. I was accepted to my first-choice school with a full tuition scholarship — I'm convinced the strength of my application made the difference."
