Navigating College Admissions Successfully and the Importance of Community Service

Stand Out For College are offering this Zoom presentation to help families understand how COVID-19 has changed the college admissions landscape and how it will affect Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen. They will discuss the holistic admissions review process and focus on the greater consideration admissions officers are giving to extracurricular activities as most students will have had a year and a quarter or more of grades earned during remote/hybrid learning which will carry less weight when applications are reviewed. They will also discuss the importance of community service, how it can provide an opportunity for personal growth and an opportunity to showcase a student’s character.
