TOMORROW: College Admissions Workshop & New Rankings Blog Post

NEW BLOG POST ABOUT RANKINGS
One Student's Story

"I applied to a bunch of schools, and ended up committing to a Public Ivy because it was the highest ranked school of my options. Sounds great, right? I was going to get a great education at a highly-ranked school.

It wasn’t great. ...

Four years ago I never would have expected myself to end up where I am. I had my whole college journey planned out, but then it got upended. That’s life. Don’t beat yourself up if everything doesn’t go according to your plans. You’re still going to do great things."

TOMORROW! COLLEGE ADMISSIONS WORKSHOP

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?

Learn strategies to help reduce pressure around the college admissions process and ways to support students' well-being and readiness for life in college and beyond. With the pandemic inserting more uncertainty into this process, we will include a Q&A at the end to answer some of your most pressing questions.

If the cost of attending this workshop is a barrier for you or students you work with, please reach out, and we are happy to offer financial assistance.

“My wife and I truly appreciate the thoughtful discussion and presentation yesterday evening. It really helped us to put things into perspective as we approach the topic of college for our boys."

"The clearly outlined research you presented, with such warmth and good sense, was outstanding. The context and the practical approaches you offered will surely give everyone in our community a much-needed grounding in the admissions process. (I’m even more appreciative of your message now, as we hear new and shifting kinds of family preoccupations than we’d experienced with those first couple of classes.) The articulation of priorities was a wonderful starting point."
