The College Search Process

Tues. May 23, 2017      6:30 p.m.

Husky Union Building 250

Applying to college can be overwhelming for any high school student — and for parents, too. There’s so much to do, from taking standardized tests and finding the right school to organizing a variety of applications and writing essays. And a lot’s changed since you were a student.

Led by independent college consultant and Edge Academics founder Emily Gallagher, this workshop will help make the process less daunting and is targeted toward 9th- to 11th-grade students and their parents. Bring the whole family!

UWAA Members: $10 for a family of four
Non-members: $15 for a family of four

5:45–6:30 p.m. Optional 45-minute tour, HUB Welcome Center
6:30–8 p.m. Workshop, HUB 250

6:30–7:15 p.m. Emily Gallagher 30-minute presentation + 15-minute Q&A

Please note: This seminar has been developed to assist students and parents with the college admissions process in general rather than University of Washington admission specifically. Participation in this program will have no effect on a student’s application status should they decide to apply to the UW. Factors such as demonstrated interest and alumni affiliation are not considered in the review process.
