Today we will explore what your options are and what to consider when deciding with your teen what college to choose.
The emotional twists and turns of the college admissions process can feel like being on a rollercoaster. But today I open the door to having a candid conversation between parents and teens, spotlighting the impact of societal pressures and the heavy hand of social media.
We talk about:
- the sting of rejection
- the celebration of acceptance
- the recent FAFSA changes that have us all exercising patience
Through personal anecdotes and a dive into the essence of what truly makes a "right school," we challenge the status quo and reframe success beyond prestigious names.
As we explore the heartfelt considerations families must face when selecting a college, prepare to find a relief of pressure.
Join us as we embrace the educational adventure, reassuring you that the path to success is as unique as each student who walks it.
