Arlington Community Education

Join a former college admissions officer for an insider’s perspective on the complex and challenging college admissions process. We will discuss how to conduct research on colleges through virtual visits, and how to make those visits more meaningful, the value of a college interview, even if it is conducted via Skype or Zoom, the ever-changing college entrance exam landscape, and the different college application platforms. We’ll also spend some time on choosing faculty for teacher recommendation letters, and the difference between Early Decision, Early Action and Regular Decision applications. With this information you will be able to develop a reasonable timeline for your student and learn key organizational strategies to keep your college application process on track. Parents and students are welcome to attend. Open to both juniors and seniors and their parents.
