As our society reflects on and re-examines the admissions process, we invite you to join Dr. Steven Antonoff for a meaningful conversation about higher education, and the resulting system applicants must navigate. Participants will enjoy Dr. Antonoff’s perspectives surrounding the national and international college admission scene with emphasis on recruitment, selectivity, and resulting social impact; resources (financial and other) available to assist students and families pursuing higher education, particularly in under-served populations.
We will also examine common myths and misconceptions with respect to college choice, majors, undergraduate vs graduate goals and objectives.
Whether working with students in an educational setting, or in an office or community based setting, assisting families as they navigate this complex transitional stage, you’re sure to benefit from Dr. Antonoff’s insights!
