THIS THURSDAY: College Admissions Workshop

THIS THURSDAY: WORKSHOP WITH DENISE POPE

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."
- High School Parent

"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."
- High School Administrator
