As the number of applications to selective colleges continues to reach new heights, so does the level of panic and frenzy surrounding the college admissions process. Join our speakers as they offer valuable insights on the process, followed by an interactive question and answer session.
Please note this event is open to all Penn alumni, and is especially geared toward parents with children in grades 7 through 11 (children are welcome!).
