What students and parents say

Academia Nut taught me how to be successful in an academic environment, how to seek exciting opportunities, and more importantly, how to be persistent, accept failures, and develop a work ethic to persevere toward a long-term goal. Apart from fostering my love of STEM and innovation, my counselor encouraged me to reach out and help the communities I identify with. She has pushed me constantly to make an impact in my local community, turning me into a more empathetic person who genuinely cares to make an impact in the places I call home.

My counselor is meticulous in her work, intent on leaving no detail unexamined when it comes to her students’ potential. In advising me, she had a talent that the other counselors I worked with before her didn’t: keen insight into how someone’s interests and background could be weaved into a coherent, focused narrative.
