Hi! I am a proud graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of Maryland, College Park, where I respectively earned my BA in Psychology and M.Ed. in School Counseling. I am a first-generation college student and have made it my life’s work to help students like me navigate the college-going process. After completing my Undergraduate degree, I joined the College Advising Corps and worked as a college advisor in a public high school in North Carolina, where for two years I was the sole College Advisor for 2000 students and guided them throughout their college application processes. I then went on to gain almost a decade of higher education experience working as an Undergraduate Admissions Counselor, and Program Coordinator/Advisor for First Year College Students. I have worked with students through the pipeline, and I have a passion for helping students to find their best fit. I believe that college is one of the best experiences of your life, so it is an honor for me to help students navigate their way through this monumental milestone.

Hello! My name is Sydney, and I am a proud Midwest native, first-generation college student, and Tar Heel! I received a B.S. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a Master of Environmental Management (MEM) from Duke University. As a high school senior, I was accepted into all 13 schools I applied to and I earned over $1.7 million in college scholarships, including the prestigious national Gates Millennium Scholarship and Morehead-Cain Scholarship at UNC. Along with being a Senior Advisor with CollegeAdvisor.com, I am also a Webinar Moderator. I used my undergraduate experience as a time to explore different subject areas. I entered college with the hopes of attending veterinary school, so I am familiar with pre-health tracks and requirements. During a required introductory computer science class, I fell in love with programming and ended up pursuing a minor in Computer Science and working as a Teaching Assistant for several semesters. I also earned a minor in Education because of my passion for educational equity and access. Outside of my academics, I played club rugby and acted in Company Carolina productions. After graduating in December 2020, I applied to a variety of marine and environmental science graduate programs at schools like Scripps Institute of Oceanography at UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara, and University of Miami. I ultimately decided to go back to North Carolina where I pursued a Master of Environmental Science with a specialization in Coastal Environmental Management at the Duke University Marine Lab. My Master's Project compiled community art projects and individuals' creative representations of the word "entanglement" for a digital zine. I also have experience with research, as I have traveled to places like the Galapagos and Australia to work in the field on a range of research projects. Currently, I have a science communications fellowship with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). I am excited to work alongside students to showcase their authentic self to colleges and can't wait to see all of the amazing schools they are accepted to!

After graduating from UNC, I started my career as a college advisor where I helped guide students through the college application process, both in-person and virtually.

I enjoy helping students craft their story to allow their strengths, their passions, and their authentic selves to shine in college applications. During my time as an advisor, I have had the honor of successfully advising students who have been accepted into top colleges and Ivy League schools across the US. Throughout my professional career I have gained experience as a College Advisor, an MBA student, a digital marketer, and a product manager. Understanding the importance of exploring your passions and pursuing your interests, I have had the opportunity to pivot and explore different opportunities – and I want to encourage you to also explore different pathways as you begin your college journey! The college application process doesn’t have to be stressful – I look forward to working with you to find colleges that are the best fit, craft your essays, and submit strong applications that you are proud of… and ensuring that we have fun along the way!
I am Megan Tang and have 10+ years of experience in advising and supporting students through the college admissions process, college access and success, ensuring students' achievement through their first year in college, and a number of other aspects that ensure your collegiate experience is transformative for you. I graduated from Wake Forest University with a Bachelor of Science in Health and Exercise Science and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. Additionally, I have a Master of Public Administration from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I started my journey in the college access space working in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at Wake Forest University where I conducted thousands of interviews, reviewed prospective student applications, and was a part of the team in deciding which students were admitted into Wake Forest. Currently, and for the past 8 years, I have worked with a college access organization in North Carolina, serving over 2,000 juniors and seniors each year. Through my college access work and advising, students in the program have enrolled in over 135 different colleges and universities across the country at schools such as Duke University, Harvard University, Stanford University, Tufts University, UNC Chapel Hill, and many more. My time in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at Wake Forest and my current role with college access provided, and continues to provide me, with a full understanding of the best practices to enhance your essays and other supporting materials for college admissions. Additionally, I have significant experience working with students to develop a strong target list of colleges and universities for their specific portfolio. I look forward to learning more about you, working with you to help you realize your college dreams, and finding the school that will suit you best!
