    This was great. Thank you. I’m a HS Counselor and I’m trying to learn as much as I can about admissions so I can guide my kids. We are a Title 1 school and the vast majority of my kids would be 1st gen. Their parents have few skills to help them and I’m so overextended (1 counselor for the entire school - 650 kids) that I can’t sit with each student and talk them through the process. Which means I have no idea what most applications look like. I did get a fake CommonApp but I’ve only gone as far as the common questions. Not into the separate colleges ones. Anyway, thanks for this. Also I’m in GA and no surprise we passed some stupid ass law like that. 🙄

    Hi, my daughter is a normal intl. and needs considerable Financial aids. She loves Mount Holyoke whose admission rates for ED and RD is almost same last year, and based on her profile, this college is a Match. What do you think is the best application strategy? ED or RD? Thank you in advance!!!

    Just want to correct a growing trend revealed in something you said, you said 'your guidance counselor is your number one allie'. No, parents are your number one allie, you should see some of the guidance counselors I've interacted with in my professional career. Parents have always turned up for the best interest of the child. Both parent and counselor can make mistakes, no doubt, but parents are reliably caring in the best interest of the applicant.

    Hello, I Am an international applicant. Does applying in the early decision maximize my chance of getting it?.

    • @AnnaIveyVideo
      @AnnaIveyVideo 3 роки тому

      Hi there -- whether domestic or international, if you're not already competitive for that school, then Early Decision doesn't really boost the odds, unless you fall into those exceptions I discuss in the video. A lot of ED spots are taken up by legacies and recruited athletes, so "normal" applicants have to be pretty strong to be accepted from the ED pool (incl. international students). If your profile can improve between ED and RD then it's better to apply RD.

    HI Anna. I am wondering what you feeling is about using the additional info section on the common app. Some people advise "lumping" common activities so only to use the ten spots on the common app while others say to use the additional info space for overflow. Thoughts? Thank you.

    Hi! I would to get in touch with you and discuss about that book! Not only because I planned to apply in a US Law School while being originally a French Speaker from Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa, people around me always insist that it’s a waste of time, I don’t really have a meaningful grasp of English and I face several other barriers. The more I have blockages the more I’m determined to make it. Thus you can imagine how much I need that book!

    I'm wondering if I have to clarify whether I will be majoring in music or not. I will be applying for Economics but I have an interest in theater. Especially because I am an international student, thus, never had chances to perform in high school plays or anything like that, I am afraid if my portfolio will be compared with professional applicants.

      @@AnnaIveyVideo I have heard that we are allowed to elaborate on this passion in the additional information section and might even put a link to my performance. I was told by an accepted student that his video was reviewed by his admission officer and was considered more for passion than talent-compared with if he was to submit it as an art supplement. Is this true? I am considering this option as I won't be able to submit an english recommendation letter from a music teacher-as needed for the art supplement. Thank you in advance!
