No matter where you want to go to college—Yale, Colby, or an enormous public university that could absolutely crush either of those two at football—there are always things you can do to improve your chances of admission. Grades, test scores, activities, even essays and interviews--even small improvements in each of these can make a big difference.
At this free seminar, Secrets of College Admissions: 101, held on Wednesday October 15 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m at Christ and Holy Trinity Church in Westport, Collegewise will cover all the college admissions elements. They'll also share unique and proven Collegewise strategies that will make you a stronger college applicant and make sure you avoid the most common application mistakes.
The seminar will be led by Amy Chatterjee, who heads the Westport office of Collegewise. Chatterjee is a graduate of Shepherd College (now Shepherd University, home of their “huggable, lovable mascot,” Zan the Ram) and has a masters in secondary school counseling from Villanova. She has worked as a college counselor in the New York City public schools, as a college counselor coordinator for the Peter Jay Sharp Foundation, and as a financial aid educator for CUNY at Home.
If you live in the Westport area, give Amy Chatterjee a call at (203) 557-1032 or email her at amych@collegewise.com to schedule a time to meet with your family for a free 30-minute introductory session. This session is an opportunity for Collegewise to assess if they can help your family, for you to ask questions about their programs, and for your student to get a chance to meet the person with whom he or she would be working if you enroll.
