The College Admissions Process
The college admissions process is a student’s opportunity to highlight their accomplishments, extracurriculars, and interests over their four years of high school, both inside and outside the classroom. It’s essential to begin preparing for the process as early as possible. Competition for admittance to an Ivy League university is fierce, with top-ranked schools admitting less than 4% of applicants. Beginning the college prep process as early as the seventh grade provides your student the opportunity to build a stellar profile of accomplishments over their entire high school career.
Individuals who enroll in our High School Roadmap program have access to our counseling services year-round and receive priority guidance and support for all aspects of the college application process. College admission offices look to enroll students with varying experiences and diverse backgrounds. Our expert college counselors at H&C Education work with each roadmap student to identify their academic and extracurricular interests early on in the process and then develop and refine them over the years leading up to applying for college. Another key area of focus in the Roadmap program is entrepreneurial coaching and leadership development with the creation of a capstone project that allows students to put their passions into practice. Helping students cultivate these skills early on gives them the tools to pursue passions that extend past the classroom. We formulate schedules to keep students on track and advise on overall course selection, standardized testing, summer activities and internships, and applications for grants and awards.
There is a common misconception that you must fit a specific mold or be well-rounded to gain admittance to a top university. Rather, the top universities want to admit individuals who have put significant effort into and are highly accomplished in specific fields. During freshman and sophomore year of high school, we work with students in our Roadmap program to find leadership opportunities, summer programs, and different contests or awards to showcase their talents or create their own projects. As junior year approaches, our counselors will help the student navigate the ACT, SAT, and/or PSAT. Senior students in our roadmap program will work with their college counselor to identify the schools they intend to apply to and then work through all aspects of the application process, such as the personal statement, supplemental essays, and interview prep. We’re here to help you with whatever your student may need.
