Applicant's Advice
"Believe in yourself throughout the application process. Your essays are crucial—ensure your authentic voice and passions shine through rather than trying to write what you think admissions officers want to hear. Apply to fly-in programs as a sophomore or junior. Remember that college admissions is a two-way relationship; if you gave your best effort on your application, don't let decisions diminish your self-perception. Maintain confidence even when facing self-doubt."
