Bring your whole family (and your list of questions) to the table as we explore what goes on behind the closed doors of college admissions, emphasizing the do’s and don’t’s of essays, recommendations, school visits, and interviews. Once you understand the process, we do a thorough evaluation of your student’s academic and extracurricular history, and devise a game plan for “packaging” and for improvements and repairs if needed. Next we tackle the college list and review and brainstorm the essay portion of the applications, addressing the Personal Statement and supplemental writing.
Your student will leave the session with a customized time-line from present to opening acceptance letters and a “To Do” list for the entire process.
Some popular questions answered in our seminar:
- Should I use the Common Application?
- What’s a Supplement?
- Should I apply Early Decision or Early Action?
- How important is community service?
- Is it bad to check off “undecided” as a major?
- Do I have to visit?
- How many recommendations is too many?
- Should I retake my Subject Tests or my SAT?
- Does the interview count?
- Should I declare a major on my application?
- If I take the ACT, should I still take SAT subject tests?
