Here's the most common mistake I encounter among applicants about application essays (aka "personal essay"), whether for undergrad or grad school: Unless you are applying for an MFA in writing , you are not being evaluated for beautiful writing skill. Really. It's nice, but it's not necessary. Instead, what separates the great essays from the meh essays are three things: (1) Writing clearly (2) Knowing what you want to say (3) Protecting your voice from well-meaning meddlers It's important not t

There are 24 subsections of the Common App, not including the dozens of other ones within the specific college apps themselves. Thankfully, most of them are straightforward, like activities, grades, testing, demographic data, etc. However, there is one section that seems to trip up even the most resolute high-achieving high school student: the additional information section. “ What do I put in there?

Grades are often considered the single most important factor in college admissions decisions. But how do colleges compare students who come from such different high schools? You probably know your grade point average (GPA); it’s usually printed on your transcript. But what will that number mean to colleges ? And what does it mean for a GPA to be weighted or unweighted?

The bill would make President Biden's call for free community college for all a reality. Supporters in Congress would take this one step further to create tuition-free four-year college for those making $125,000 or less annually. Lawmakers say they would pay for the program through the recently introduced Wall Street Speculation Act. The proposal has virtually no chance of clearing the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

“National,” “Merit,” and “Scholarship” all sound very good when considered in the midst of college admission. Even better when you realize that just by taking the PSAT in the fall of your junior year, you’ve already entered yourself for this award! But surely it can’t be as easy as that. After all, according to the College Board, last year more than 4.5 million high school juniors took the PSAT, but the National Merit Scholarship selected only 7,500 finalists.

“So, where are you going to go to college?” If you know a high schooler—or are one!—you know that this is a dreaded question. But why? Well, for starters, many students don’t feel like the decision is theirs. They feel beholden to inscrutable college admissions officers or the expectations of their peers and parents. Many also feel lost. With thousands of colleges in the United States, how could anyone hope to find the perfect fit?

It’s easy to fall in love with Yale University. Maybe you stopped in New Haven with your parents to escape the traffic on I-95 in Connecticut, and from the moment you saw that Gothic architecture, you knew this was it. Later you read about Yale’s residential colleges (which made it seem just like Hogwarts!), and Yale became your number one choice. At the same time, you know the acceptance rate at Yale is very low.
