WHAT COLLEGES SEEK
Colleges look for students who:
-
Challenge themselves academically
-
Engage with their communities outside of the classroom
-
Earn leadership positions and/or display strong social and emotional intelligence with their peers
-
Would be contributing to their college campus community in a positive way
-
Meet challenges and difficulties with a learning and growth mindset
ADMISSIONS CONSULTING PHILOSOPHY
I take a student-centered approach to admissions consulting and aspire to use the college application process as a platform to guide students through self-development to actualize their fullest potential. I see the college application process as an opportunity for meaningful self-inquiry at a pivotal time in young adults’ lives that will have a lasting impact.
