Perfect for parents, students, and educators, we explore the research and address common college admissions questions including:

- What is “fit” and why does it matter?
- Are students who attend higher-ranked colleges better off later in life?
- What do college rankings really measure?

Please help us get the word out about this important and timely workshop by sharing with your community. Interested in bringing this workshop to your parent community or PTA? Inquire here ([link removed]) .

"A 'Fit' Over Rankings" ([link removed]) By Challenge Success
This accessible white paper reviews and synthesizes key research to address the questions and concerns we most often hear from students and parents. The cliff notes version:
Rankings are problematic.
College selectivity is not a reliable predictor of student learning, job satisfaction, or well-being.
Engagement in college is more impotant than where you attend.

"What Students Might Not Believe about College Admissions" ([link removed]) By Douglas Tsoi
“Despite the prevalent messaging out there, your choice of college won’t determine your life. This is true despite what you might hear from your peers, parents, teachers, the media, and even your own fears. College is an important step. But it’s not going to make you, and it’s not going to break you. Everything is going to be OK, no matter where you go.”

Don’t miss this insightful blog post about the college admissions process and how we can reshape the conversations we have with students to lessen the pressure and prioritize the right fit.
