About Work @ Collegewise
Do you want your work to feel like a calling where you make a difference every day? Do you believe the college admissions process should be an exciting journey for families, not an anxiety-inducing rite of passage? Are you looking for the training, resources, and support to do the very best college counseling of your career? Collegewise is building our next cohort of Full-Time College Counselors . If you’re passionate about helping students (and their families) navigate college admissions with confidence, clarity, and ( dare we say? ) optimism, you might be just who we’re looking for. This is a hybrid position based in the Bay Area, where you'll meet with students and families both in-person and virtually. You must be available for regularly occurring in-person meetings with families (held in a local coworking space) and community events in the area. Who We Are Collegewise is a college counseling company that helps high school students confidently navigate their journey to college. We believe the college admissions process has spun out of control, with too much confusion, too much anxiety, and too many students losing agency for what should be their path to higher education. We’re out to change all that. Since 1999, we’ve helped more than 30,000 students apply and get accepted to schools—sometimes famous, often not—that they’re excited to attend. We do it all with just the right mix of advice, encouragement, and occasional cheerleading—all backed by data and experience—to ensure that each student’s college admissions process goes smoothly and thoughtfully. And our work doesn’t stop with students who enroll in our program. We speak in public, write, and constantly look for ways to spread relevant college planning information to anyone who needs it, whether or not they work with us.
