The Science of College Admissions

Most college admissions advice is based on anecdote. Dr. Aya Waller-Bey offers something far more powerful. As a former Georgetown University admissions officer who went on to earn a PhD in Sociology studying the college admissions process at the University of Michigan, Dr. Waller-Bey brings a perspective that virtually no one else can — someone who has sat on both sides of the admissions desk and then spent years studying the process through rigorous academic research. In this webinar, she will share what the data actually reveals about how selective colleges make decisions, what factors matter more than most students realize, and what conventional wisdom gets wrong. Whether you are a student, a parent, or both, this is your chance to replace guesswork with real insight.
