There is an ocean of information about college admissions but no one source that satisfactorily summarizes the whole process for parents and students. Here is an admissions guide that helps applicants to understand the process and make the best use of their resources to maximize their chances for admission. Based on the authors' personal experience and knowledge gained over an eight-year period, this book provides the practical tips and strategies from both the parents' and applicants' perspectives. It is an all-inclusive, user-friendly guide that condenses that ocean of information into a manageable process.
