Susan Chan Shifflett, a former Assistant Director of Undergraduate Admissions at Yale, works with students to prepare them for the college admissions process and to thrive academically, extracurricularly, and personally.
“Let’s say you’re a junior in high school and your plans for preparing for your college application have been upended because of the global pandemic. Your school has gone remote. The SAT you were going to take got canceled. And all your extracurricular activities have ceased.
“Junior year is arguably the most critical year for your college application. What can you do during this time, and what does this mean for your chances at college admissions?
“Instead of seeing this time as a barrier, it’s a ripe opportunity to stand out. The coronavirus crisis is leveling the playing field, and it’s a chance for the most creative and independent students to shine.”
