This Zoom presentation will help families of juniors, sophomores and freshmen understand the college admissions process and how to successfully navigate the recent changes.
Ron Feuchs and Jackie Tepper, partners at Stand Out for College, LLC, will discuss current college admissions trends, admissions strategies, the changing test-optional environment, the importance of researching and visiting colleges to find schools that can be a good fit for your child, a timeline and other action steps that can be taken to make this fall productive and help reduce the stress around the college admissions process.\
They will examine the holistic admissions review process, what admissions officers consider important when they review applicants, and how students can position themselves to develop a compelling narrative to increase their chances for admission.
They will also discuss the importance of community service, how it can provide an opportunity for meaningful experiences, personal growth and a way to showcase a student’s character. Admissions officers place great emphasis on a student’s character and how the student has been able to give back and help others.
This program is recommended for parents and their high school teens and is a detailed and strategic overview of what students should focus on for a successful college admissions process.
The presentation will be led by Ron Feuchs and Jackie Tepper, partners at Stand Out For College, LLC. (www.standoutforcollege.com)
