Imagine making a decision that could forever change the life of a young adult.

Now imagine making hundreds of these decisions every single day for up to 5 months.

That’s an admissions officer’s job during application season.

There hasn’t been a single admissions officer that I’ve talked to who enjoys that aspect of the job. 

But it’s their job, and they’ve been trained with specific guidelines to help them make decisions even between nearly identical candidates.

These vary by school and individual groups, but typically they’re looking for unanswered questions or inconsistencies in the application.

Examples include wondering why your child chose certain classes, why they applied for a specific major, or even how likely they are to enroll if accepted.

All of these questions can raise concerns that will likely put a student on the waitlist, defer them, or worse…

Into the rejection pile.

Once a student ends up in these piles, it’s almost impossible to get accepted.

But if your child submits a consistent application with a clear narrative that leaves no questions unanswered, they will greatly increase their chances of getting in.

You want admission officers to struggle to find a reason not to accept your child.

And the best way to do this is by building a strong Student Brand and Positioning.

This is exactly what I help students do through my Premium Foundations Program and through the 9th -10th grade cohort of the College Admissions Academy.

As for the Academy, our next call (for 8th, 9th, and 10th graders) will be at 12:00pm PST on Sunday, September 29th.

If your student is already in the academy, I hope to see you there.

If not, I recommend signing up ASAP so your child has a chance to go over the course material before the next group coaching call.
