What Student's are saying:
I learned about the application process, specifically important dates and definitions for applying, and we also got a jump start on Common App.
The best thing that I learned was how to write an essay that will stand out among other students to colleges.
In these workshops, I learned what colleges look for in applicants and how to pick the colleges you wish to apply to.
I learned how to deeply research a college and find if you are truly interested in it.
I learned that my essay doesn't need to be this heroic tale but just one that is unique and tells my story..
