This seminar introduces families to the basic principles of college planning, without putting undue pressure on the students.

To many freshmen and sophomores, essays and applications seem a lifetime away. But there are other aspects of college planning that are important today. Participating in classes, getting involved in activities, and developing good habits will help freshmen and sophomores be more successful.

We will walk you through what to expect during on-campus visits, how to get the most out of it, and even how to have fun along the way.

This webinar will point out different tools and approaches to use to make the most out of a college visit. We'll talk about the ways to efficiently use these tools to build a balanced college list and find the right schools for you.

We'll Discuss:

- What to prioritize while on a visit

- What questions to ask tour guides or admissions offices

- What mistakes to avoid

- And so much more!

Join us for this exclusive event with college admissions experts!

Does having a low GPA mean your teen won't get accepted to a good college? No, it doesn't!

Parents want their student to get the encouragement and support they need to chase their college dreams. But the obsession around prestigious colleges and how to get into them can leave some kids who aren’t at the top of the class feeling left out, and their parents wondering if college is even an option. The United States has the most open and accessible system of higher education anywhere in the world. There are plenty of good schools that will happily admit a nice kid who’s a B or C student, schools that don’t care about test scores or expect applicants to have garnered a long list of accolades by age 17. If you’re the parent of a teen whose gifts and potential aren’t encapsulated by grades, test scores, and accomplishments, if you need some encouragement and direction to help a deserving teen see and follow their path to college, we hope you’ll join us for this webinar.

So how do students who get accepted to the nation’s most selective colleges set themselves apart? We’ll show you.

Grades, test scores, and impressive activities alone won't get a student admitted to schools that reject almost all their applicants. While we don't believe that prestigious colleges are necessarily better colleges, we want students who are interested in these schools to have straight answers about what it will really take to have a shot at getting admitted.
