SUMMARY:Navigating College Admissions Successfully
DESCRIPTION:Join Ron Feuchs and Jackie Tepper\, partners at Stand Out For 
 College\, LLC for a Zoom presentation to help families understand how 
 COVID-19 has changed the college admissions landscape and how it will 
 affect juniors\, sophomores and freshmen. This program covers how 
 admissions officers are handling the current situation and how students can 
 position themselves to develop a compelling narrative to increase their 
 chances for admission.\n\nThis recent college admissions cycle has turned 
 out to be the most competitive to date. Most colleges went test-optional 
 due to the pandemic and colleges increased their virtual outreach to high 
 school students\, resulting in a record number of candidates applying. With 
 record high numbers of applications come record low acceptance rates at 
 many popular colleges and universities. As many colleges have announced 
 that they will continue to be test-optional at least in the short term\, 
 applicants will face a similarly challenging admissions environment. 
 \n\nThe holistic admissions review process will be discussed with a focus 
 on the greater consideration admissions officers are giving to 
 extracurricular activities and the impact of more than a year of 
 remote/hybrid learning.
