Writing the college essay is one of the most daunting tasks high school students face in applying to college. It is so important, and it feels like an impossible task: write an essay that will show how amazing you are without saying, that’s right, how amazing you are. Yowza.

Your college application is like a sales pitch. You have to identify what the school is looking for, pitch yourself as a unique candidate with something special to offer to their student body, and, of course, make the school remember you. You have to network! But how do you network with the schools on your list exactly? It may seem daunting, but putting yourself on a college’s radar is easier than you think.

I occasionally get a phone call from a student that wants to avoid the MCAT and has heard that some medical schools don’t require it for admissions.

During the school year you dutifully took an ACT prep course after school and completed practice test after practice test. Now that summer break is here, your next opportunity to take the SAT or ACT may be months away. And, although the summer can be a great time to take a break from the hustle of the school year, you don’t want to let your diligent preparation go to waste.
Admissions Madness

What frustrates me the most about universities is how they assure their applicants that it’s easy, simple, and maybe even fun to apply! They’re encouragements suggest to me just how out of touch admissions counselors and university bureaucrats are from the needs of families. Many students and families navigate the admissions process without stressing too much, but for tens of thousands of others, this process is ripe with anxiety, stress, and worry.

College interviews are a waste of time and resources. Most universities seem to agree. Among all of the silly and absurd aspects of applying to college, interviews are the most b t. Of the 16 admissions factors from the most recent NACAC survey, interviews rank fourth to the bottom.
