Jill Madenberg draws upon her 20-plus years of counseling experience while her daughter Amanda—a student who just recently went off to college—adds tips and personal stories. Whether you are wondering how to choose high school classes and activities, create a realistic college list, get the most out of a campus visit, or maintain a positive and healthy attitude, Love the Journey to College will help you make educated decisions throughout the process—and show you how to do it with a smile.
As the daughter of an experienced college counselor, Amanda Madenberg has been visiting colleges for as long as she can remember—on family vacations, weekend road trips, and school holidays. Even at a young age, she took interest as her mom spoke with tour guides, admissions counselors, and students on campus to get a feel for life at a particular school. Most importantly, Amanda greatly enjoyed her own college application process—from visiting campuses to writing supplemental essays. Writing as both a typical high school student and as the daughter of a college counselor, Amanda lends a unique and entertaining perspective to Love the Journey to College.
Jill Madenberg has been a college admissions professional in New York since 1993, serving as a certified high school guidance counselor and independent college consultant in Long Island, near New York City. She has visited hundreds of college campuses and has worked as a regional recruiter for two specialized colleges in the Northeast. Jill earned her bachelor’s degree from The George Washington University and master’s degree Summa Cum Laude in counseling and guidance from New York University. Jill is a longtime member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA), Higher Educational Consultants Association (HECA), and the National Association of College Admissions Counselors (NACAC). She speaks regularly to students and their families about the college admissions process and has conducted webinars and seminars to other professionals learning about the college process. Jill has been interviewed for articles in The New York Times and USA Today, as well as for features on National Public Radio and Fox News. Amanda Madenberg has had a passion for writing since elementary school, and being a published author has been a dream from an early age. Nurturing her love for journalism, and inspired by her high school English teacher’s passion for all things oriented to writing, Amanda held several editorial positions on her high school newspaper. She's contributed feature articles to her local weekly paper, and wrote for the online magazine Teenink.
