The Carnival of College Admissions NEVER CEASES to AMAZE
Sure, that headline might sound a little PT Barnum, but...well, it is a carnival, so...
Where else can you find out about the following:
Mark Montgomery is an independent college consultant (or "college coach") in Colorado, but his global experience will take him to Hong Kong next month (where he once lived) to speak on admissions. We like Mark a lot and he hosts this edition of the carnival, so here's a link to his blog. We've already asked him to send photos and even video from his HK trip.
In a post from an expert on finding a college from a Middle Eastern perspective, Wassan Hamadi argues that it’s time for students to make better informed financial decisions about their education. Options abound - 4-year schools that aren't common names, or community colleges that deliver phenomenal dollar values and serve as bridges to 4-year schools. Here's the link to the Al Jamiat blog.
U Sphere is fast becoming friends with the folks at the University of New Haven and their admissions guru is Gil Rogers. He's got a great post entitled PLEASE READ THIS and there's some really good stuff about FAFSA codes and filling out forms. The minutiae that, well, is part of getting in.
Test Prep? There's some info about that, too. From the SAT and ACT guru, Elizabeth, whose elizabethonline won't let you down. Spell check be darned! (She explains.)
It's chock full -- students, parents, kids who don't know where they're going yet, guidance counselors and more. You'll like.
