About this webinar
Join Marc Zawel and Stephen Friedfeld, AcceptU’s co-founders, as they draw on 15+ years of experience working with Wellesley families to explain how top colleges view applicants from Wellesley High and nearby independent schools — including Dana Hall, Dexter, Milton, Nobles and Rivers — and what families can do now to help their students build a strong profile and ultimately stand out in the application process.
In this session, you will learn:
- How selective colleges evaluate applicants from Wellesley
- What students in grades 8-11 can focus on now
- The most common missteps Wellesley students make
- Real case studies from Wellesley-area schools
