College Talks: Reach, Target, or Safety? Avoiding Common Application Mistakes
March 23 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm JST
Navigating the college application process can feel overwhelming, but planning ahead is key. Join us for a webinar designed to help high school students and families understand how to strategically build a balanced college list. In this webinar, Josephine will highlight and explain the importance of selecting a mix of reach, target, and safety schools when applying to universities.
Not only will you understand how having a list of reach, target, and safety schools can maximize chances of acceptance, you will also understand what qualifies as a reach, target, and safety school based on factors like students’ academic profile, extracurriculars, and personal preferences. Plus, we’ll discuss why it’s critical to start early in the application process to avoid last-minute stress and missed opportunities.
Don’t wait until the last minute—take control of your college journey today!
