Admissions: The College-Applicant’s Context

Welcome back, blog-readers! We hope that you all had wonderful breaks and happy New Year’s.

Starting off 2011, the Veritas Blog is proud to inaugurate a new series, seguëïng from the Graduate Record Exam (whose series will return in the future) onto the College Admissions Process! In this first video in the series, Veritas co-founders Andrew M. and Jay B. introduce themselves, their work, and the current college-applicant’s context in one of Veritas’ popular and free local seminars. Speaking under the title “How to Get into (Your) Harvard,” the two emphasize that “there are schools out there for everyone” and that, by “discover[ing] what you love to do and striv[ing] to be excellent at it,” you’ll not only get into a college that’s right for you but also “live a fulfilled and successful life.” In short, Jay and Andrew speak to help you discover the passions that you’d like to cultivate going forward and, in posts still to come, will elaborate on how best you as a high-school student can do so.

Stay tuned, blog-readers! There’s a lot more in store for 2011.

Warmly yours,

The Veritas Team
