Program Description

Description

The new applications cycle is underway and deadlines are coming up. With universities receiving thousands of applications each year, the question most families have is "How do I make my application stand out amongst the others?" 

In this presentation, we'll cover: 

  1. The different college applications & admissions cycles (Early Action, Early Decision, Regular, Rolling).
  2. A section-by-section look at the Common App & best practices for each.
  3. Common mistakes students make on their applications.
  4. Tips & strategies to make their applications stand out.

The session will be run by Priyanka Shingala of Let's Talk College, LLC based in Redding, CT. Priyanka has been working in the college counseling/test prep industry for 10+ years, helping students & their families navigate the college applications process.
