Join me, Susan Goodkin, along with a former Princeton University Assistant Director of Admissions, to discuss the keys to getting accepted to the Ivy League and Stanford.
Every September, l face my least favorite part of being a college consultant.
New clients will come to me for advice as students are about to start their college applications. The moms and dads are sure their students are headed to the Ivies or Stanford.
They think their students have done everything right. They've gotten top grades and test scores, they're very well-rounded, and their teachers love them.
Every year, my heart hurts as I have to gently tell these justifiably proud parents that their wonderful children are not likely to be admitted to an Ivy or Stanford.
And every time, I wish I could have talked to these parents earlier so they would have known better what the Ivies and Stanford are looking for and could have improved the odds of their students getting accepted -- and helped them enjoy their high school years more.
Join me for a 90-minute webinar that will help you understand now what the most selective colleges are looking for, what your student needs to be doing if he or she aspires to get into an Ivy or Stanford, and how to avoid the mistakes that prevent so many top students from being accepted.
"Eight Keys to Getting Into the Ivies/Stanford"
