This fall, many high school juniors and their families are starting to think about the college admissions process. As you embark on this journey, we encourage you to think critically about how you’d like to shape the conversations you have with your child.  How do I support my child in finding “great fit” college options?  How can I talk about college with my child in a way that aligns with our family’s values?  How can I offer my child the reassurance and perspective that adulthood affords?

Don’t miss our recent blog post, What Students Might Not Believe About the College Admissions Process, along with additional research-based resources below.

Warmly,
The Challenge Success Team
COLLEGE ADMISSIONS
PREPARING (PARENTS) FOR COLLEGE ADMISSIONS
Whether you are worried you might be putting too much pressure on your child during the college admissions process or if you want to educate yourself on what the research says about college selectivity, these resources are for you: from students’ frustration with the impossibility of meeting all college admissions expectations to how to think about an intentional approach to the admissions process.
 
STARTING A CONVERSATION IN YOUR PARENT COMMUNITY
Bring our workshop, A Healthier Approach to College Admissions, to your parent community. Many parent organizations and schools host parent events to discuss important topics, including college admissions. Some pair these discussions with outside speakers, book clubs, our college white paper, or other resources.
