Preparing something amazing

When does the college application process begin? While essays and testing heat up in the spring and summer before 12th grade, elements like school research and class schedule planning start years earlier. And with a years-long application process, it’s helpful for families at every point in the process to have a firm understanding of what they need to do and when they should plan to do it. So join former Ivy League admissions officer Devery Doran for a complete overview of the admissions process with the added value of insight from inside the admissions office. She’ll break down the key elements schools want to see in a candidate, the timeline for building strong transcripts and extracurricular involvement, the steps of an ideal school research and visitation process, and the important formal and informal deadlines you won’t want to miss. This live, interactive session is ideal for students and parents from 8th through 11th grades and provides pragmatic timeline planning with strategic insight you can only get from someone who’s seen admissions from every side of the process.
