Is applying to medical school on your agenda for this year? Much like undergraduate admissions, the medical school application process is multifaceted and comprehensive, so we always encourage applicants to prepare well in advance.
Students who are interested in applying to the early rounds likely have many questions about the Early Decision application process — perhaps most especially, how high the acceptance rate is at their top-choice college.
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are institutions of higher education in the United States that were established with the primary goal of providing educational opportunities for African Americans during a time of widespread racial segregation. HBCUs offer a diverse range of academic programs and contribute significantly to research, community development, and the overall advancement of knowledge. While HBCUs now admit students of all races, they continue to play a significant role in providing access to higher education for Black students.
Boarding school can be an excellent opportunity for students to get a taste of campus life, learn from a diverse group of classmates, and explore new passions. Much like the college search process, there are a variety of institutions that students must consider before compiling their list of best-fit options for boarding school.
Students must weigh many considerations when compiling their list of best-fit colleges, including application fees. Many universities include a fee that prospective students must pay when submitting their applications unless the student qualifies for fee waivers.

The Price Is Right is iconic, having graced TV screens since 1972. Plinko, the Showcase Showdown, and of course the excitement as they call your name to come on down to contestant’s row is familiar to a lot of people, so I was thrilled when I appeared as a contestant in 2017.
Managing stress often isn’t about taking stuff off a student’s plate, but rather giving them the tools to better manage their study, organizational, and time management skills. Some students are overly stressed while getting good grades. Other students are really underperforming in class and getting low grades that do not reflect at all what they are capable of achieving academically. Sometimes, students with very high intelligence do not have some of the foundational skills that can make them successful in high school, college, and in life.
After college graduation, business-minded students often consider two options: beginning their professional career versus enrolling in an MBA program. While there is no one-size-fits-all choice, there are certain programs that often prove to be best-fit options for MBA applicants applying directly from college.
When it comes to helping your student craft their college list, fit is the most important decision factor. This is especially true when your child has a disability and needs extra support and accommodations to be successful in college.
