30th Reunion Virtual Programming Series

Session 3: College Admissions


 

The College Admissions Landscape in 2023
It’s hard to underestimate the vast changes to the world of college admissions since we applied in 1988-89. Digital applications and tests are here or coming soon. Costs, numbers of applications, and students’ anxieties have skyrocketed as acceptance rates have plummeted. Classmates Greg Bravo, Wendy Chang, Alissa McLean, Dominique Padurano, and Maggie Tai Tucker represent a mix of independent and school-based college counselors, test prep coaches, and parents who have shepherded their own children through this process. Join us on Sunday, April 2, 5:00 PM ET, as we discuss these developments and their implications for your own children’s college application journeys.
