Character Counts in the College Admissions Process: Collegewise Live Webinar
Virtual Event
Register to join Collegewise for their live webinar: Character Counts. You’ll learn about Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)and how influential it is in admission processes of even the most selective colleges.
Event Description: When applying to college, students and parents understand the role of grades, course rigor, and standardized testing. An increasingly important element is Social and Emotional Learning. In this presentation, you’ll learn how SEL distinguishes itself from academic factors and why even the most selective of colleges place an immense value on empathy, ethical behavior, and engagement with others. We will discuss this in relation to course selection, extracurricular activities, and building a smart college list. There will also be practical advice for students who are seeking to understand themselves better and portray the most authentic version of themselves in their applications.
