TESTIMONIAL #1
I made it to my dream school!
T. K. – (Class of 2023)
Thank you SO much, for helping me throughout the process. Your input was a ‘massive’ part of my success. I’m extremely excited about The Purple Pen and I’m sure it’ll turn out to be a huge success, given how valuable I had found your input to be during my college admissions process. I’m certain all the other students you have worked with would have only great things to say about you, so hopefully it turns out just as you have envisioned it.
I would like to reiterate how grateful I am that you were able to take the time out to help me with my essays. Your insightful and constructive feedback enabled me to tell my stories effectively and has helped me gain acceptance to my university of choice.
TESTIMONIAL #2
You helped me share my academic goals effectively!
A.K. – (Class of 2022)
Ever so grateful for all the timely information, and clearly stated expectations, which helped me create an impactful Personal Statement. With your customised resources and pointed questions I was able to add the ‘personal’ to my ‘personal statement’. In the pursuit of finding my academic goals, I was enabled to find myself in a whole new way. You did not only proofread my essays but helped me share my story, my experiences and my lessons in life, effectively. Thank you so much.
TESTIMONIAL #3
You helped me immensely.
K.G. – Student (Class of 2023)
It is hard to put into words how helpful Geetu was with my application process. I approached her pretty late during the process but the applications I submitted were unique, and reflected who I am, my story, and my specific fit with each university. Geetu, you not only urged me to work in a timely fashion, but you also educated me on how to navigate the college application process. Importantly, you took time out to get to know me, for exercising patience with me, for helping me stay calm and for pushing me to put in my very best and to not settle for anything mediocre. I am utterly grateful to have had YOU as my mentor as you helped ease an otherwise challenging task of working endlessly on essay upon essay. I had a fun experience, working with you on the college essays as you made me feel more confident in my writing. Besides, I had several choices of top schools to pick from; including, University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign, UCLA, Imperial, Wisconsin Madison, Georgia Tech. and others. I am super excited to attend Berkeley in the fall. A thousand thank you-s for your thoughtful and dedicated approach, Geetu. We all know, ‘The Purple Pen’ will be a huge success and the next big thing in college ESSAY counseling.
