About Abby Kalkstein

Hello! I am a Former Admissions Officer with InGenius Prep, living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I currently work at the University of Pennsylvania School of Social Policy and Practice where I recruit and assist students through the graduate application process.

I grew up in Philadelphia (go birds!) and received my BS in Psychology from Ursinus College. Since then, I have worked at the Princeton Review and the University of Pennsylvania, where I have reviewed hundreds of applications for various undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs. I received my MSEd in Higher Education from the University of Pennsylvania. I have experience working with students at all levels, from high-school age to adult learners pivoting their career path.

I currently take classes in Positive Psychology, Leadership, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at UPenn and use principles from these fields to guide me in my coaching and mentorship. I am passionate about individuals finding their strengths and pursuing a future that will allow them to thrive. I am excited to work with students and families as they navigate the college admission process!
