Prioritizing wellbeing and success

 

Meg Joyce

Meg Joyce launched Forest Street College Counseling to share her expertise surrounding college admissions with a wider audience. Meg graduated magna cum laude from Georgetown University, where she was nominated for Rhodes, Marshall, and Mellon fellowships.

Meg went on to work in investment banking at Morgan Stanley and boutique financial advisory firms. For many years, Meg was an active interviewer with Georgetown University’s Alumni Admissions Program, where she developed her love for listening to teens during their college application journeys. Most recently, Meg was a board member and also president of New England Dance Theater.

Meg has lived in lower Fairfield County, Connecticut for nearly 30 years along with her husband and four children, now ages 20-28. During much of that time, Meg was an active volunteer, including several years teaching religious education and work with New Canaan Mounted Troop where she was involved with the teen leadership program. 

Meg has experience with the college admissions process on both a personal and professional level. She understands how time consuming and stressful the process can be for students and their families because she has been there with her four children, and families appreciate the compassion she has gained as a result.

Meg’s approach centers around educating students and their families, and prioritizing wellbeing and success both during the college search and once the student arrives on campus. Meg has a certificate as an Independent Educational Consultant from the University of California Irvine and is an Associate Member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association. In her spare time, you’ll find Meg on a jog or the treadmill, reading on the beach, or eating french fries in the sunshine.
