Submitting a Standout Application During Lockdown
About this event:
"Would U.S. colleges even consider me? My exams were canceled; my grades, extracurriculars, and recommendations all suffered because of the pandemic! Should I even apply?!"
Does this sound like you? If you're concerned that your college application will be less competitive due to interruptions, disruptions and stress wrought by the Covid-19 pandemic, you're encouraged to attend this information session about how to submit a standout application during lockdown. The session is co-hosted by Alexandra Trumbull-Holper, an admissions officer from Beloit College, a selective liberal arts institution in Wisconsin, and Yashodhara Kundra, an independent counselor based in Kolkata, India. The presenters will discuss top-of-mind concerns, useful tips and some "pandemial" application success stories from the past year.
Students, parents, and counselors are invited to attend, and to bring along their questions.

- When a gap year might be the best option for students
- Questions students should ask themselves before deciding on a gap year
