A note on Waypoint and AI

Waypoint is our AI guide. Everything presented here is prepared with the help of AI. At the end, you’ll receive an estimate of what you asked for and how we may help.

Your very next step after that is a conversation with Mary, where you can customize and design the plan together. All of our work is built to give you answers to the key questions you have in this process.

When you reach your estimate, your answers and contact details are emailed to Mary so she can prepare for your call. Your name, contact details, school and note for Mary are not sent to AI. Your intake is not saved in the website database. Please avoid including sensitive personal information in your note.

I understand Waypoint is an AI guide and the estimate is a starting point for my call with Mary.

How you’d like to work together

Every family brings a different team. Some students work closely with a school counselor. Others want a partner for the whole process.

Which sounds most like your family?

Writing supportOur school counselor guides most of the process. We’d like help with the personal statement and supplemental essays.

A full partnerWe’d like someone our student can talk with about questions and strategy, who also helps us work well with our school counselor.
