Ode to the Class of 2024

Congratulations to Mrs. “M’s” Class of 2024!

This class again showed their resilience as they conducted their college search both virtually and in person. They succeeded in so many ways and gained acceptance to a variety of outstanding schools. Even though we do not exactly know what the future holds, their shared experiences will never be forgotten, and their coping skills prepared them for whatever they may face. I am so very proud of them, and happy to have been a small part of their college process!

The following schools are lucky to have you as part of their communities next year – the distinguished Class of 2028!


Emory University

New Jersey Institute of Technology

It was such an incredible pleasure to be part of your college journey and get to know all of you. Please keep me posted on your future endeavors!

With a warm smile,
Mrs. “M”

Ode to the Class of 2020

Congratulations to Mrs. “M’s” Class of 2020!

2020 is a year that no one will ever forget. Spring semester came to a grinding halt with the pandemic lock-down. Everyone’s plans and expectations had to pivot on a dime as the whole world became virtual. The class succeeded and was accepted to many great schools. Even though we do not exactly know what the future holds, we do know that their shared experiences will never be forgotten, and their coping skills will prepare them for whatever they may face. I am so very proud of them, and happy to have been a small part of their college journey!

The following schools are lucky to have you as part of their communities next year – the distinguished Class of 2024!

Ode to the Class of 2019

Congratulations to Mrs. “M’s” Class of 2019!

Even though we continue to hear that there are less students applying from the Northeast, it was yet another incredibly competitive year. Many faced lots of wait-lists, and spring and sophomore year admits. My talented students accepted places in so many great fit schools. I am so very proud of them, and happy to be a small part of their college journey!

The following schools are lucky to have you as part of their communities next year – the distinguished Class of 2023!

400th College Visited!

intc-quadtych-photos-1 intc-quadtych-photos-1a

Carolyn Mulligan, the principal of Insiders Network to College, just visited her 400th college on a recent Texas tour. She recorded this milestone in her 13th year as a private college counselor. “Putting boots on the campuses,” taking the tours and meeting with admissions officers / regional representatives is a critical component of her counseling process. “The essence of my business is finding the right match for each student,” says Mulligan. “This entails developing a target list that blends the needs of my students with the colleges where they have a good chance of being accepted. My clients normally apply to 8 or 10 schools, which include the full spectrum from highly likely to reaches.”

intc-quadtych-photos-2intc-quadtych-photos-2a

Visiting 400 colleges is quite an accomplishment. You would need to spend over 9 months to hit this number if you saw 10 colleges a week. This accomplishment does not include Carolyn’s several return visits to many campuses over her 13-year career. Campuses and programs of study evolve and change over time. The visits, combined with attending local and regional conferences plus meeting the regional representatives as they visit local high schools during the school year has helped Carolyn find the right match for the hundreds of students she’s worked with over the years.

intc-quadtych-photos-3intc-quadtych-photos-3a

Carolyn works with her exclusive list of clients and manages all aspects of the college search. She brings a nurturing touch to the process as she endeavors to do her best for each student. “The procedure is complicated and has many dimensions that need to be addressed. My corporate logo is a labyrinth. It’s not a maze. It’s complicated but if you follow the path there’s success at the end. I’m there every step of the way to get my students to the college they may never have thought of but may be just the right place.”

Ode to the Class of 2018

Congratulations to Mrs. “M’s” Class of 2018!

This year’s colleges and universities are lucky to have so many talented students in their incoming class. Among others, there is the new Steve Jobs, an amazing epidemiologist, a female biomedical engineer/diver, the future Elon Musk, a potential candidate for Shark Tank, a talented pitcher, a sports communicator, a philosopher, a dentist, a computer scientist, an owner of a fly-fishing guide company and a caring neuroscientist. Their futures will be nurtured and inspired at the following schools, as part of the Class of 2022!

Texas Round-Up

trinity_univ_campus_san_antonio
Trinity University
From the time I stepped on campus and looked over the city of San Antonio, I realized that I had discovered a “hidden gem” at Trinity University. In the words of one of the student panelists from Burlington, Vermont, she thought it was the “Middlebury” of the Southeast. The campus is wooded and lush, but has a bucolic feel even though it’s in the middle of San Antonio, the nation’s 7th largest city. San Antonio is diverse and fun with ethnic food; the meandering Riverwalk, reminiscent of Venice, is downtown and we were there during Fiesta, their Mardi Gras. The student panel reminded us that they study very hard and are excellent students, having done a lot of internships, and many seniors already had jobs or good leads that were connected to them by active alums.

The combination of diversity, access to professors, a variety of strong majors, and active community service, gave me a really good feel for the university. This is a school I plan to suggest to many more of my students, now that I have experienced it first-hand.


univ-houston-shasta-cougar
The University of Houston
In 1969, Conrad Hilton, Eric Hilton and Founding Dean James Taylor announced the funding of what would become the Hilton College at the University of Houston. The Hilton Hotel on campus is one of 350 Hilton hotels, but is unique in that it is a primary teaching facility for the College. Many of their employees are students receiving experience in guest service, hotel operations, food & beverage service, housekeeping and banquets. There are only a few universities in the United States that have hotels on their campus including the Statler at Cornell University.

The University of Houston is also known for their Honors College encompassing such programs as the Bauer Business College, Engineering and many Health Programs.


rice_quad
Rice University
As soon as you walk through the stately archway and enter the spectacular quad at Rice, you can feel the satisfaction of the student body. Much of this is attributed to their Residential College system where all students are assigned freshman year to a college or small community where they live, dine and interact with faculty mentors. Each residential college is a self-supporting unit with its own government, budget, intramural team and advisors. Students identify with their residential college well beyond graduation. It is for life.

Students at Rice achieve their goals with great compassion but in support of each other and without competition at the expense of others. It is a comprehensive research university, even though the school is a little under 4,000 students. Some of this has to do with its location in Houston close to terrific medical and scientific facilities, including NASA and the MD Anderson Cancer Center.


century-tree-at-texas-a-and-m
Texas A & M University
We were on the expansive campus of Texas A & M University just days after Barbara Bush was buried on the grounds of the George H.W. Bush Library. Her funeral cortege drove on a road lined with the corps of cadets who are part of the undergraduate student body, and we saw and heard these cadets on campus during our tour. We loved the Century Tree near the Academic Building. Tradition says that if a couple walks together underneath the Century Tree, they will eventually marry — and if a marriage proposal takes place under the tree, the marriage will last forever. The celebration of tradition at Texas A & M is sacred.

A tremendous football school, the Texas “Aggies” honor the tradition of the “12th Man,” and harkening back to this story, all attendees stand during every game in honor of this special legacy.


fountain_austin_texas
University of Texas – Austin
The flagship of the University of Texas system, the campus at Austin, is just gorgeous. With fountains and reflecting pools, it is no wonder that many of our out-of-state students go to UT-Austin for specific programs and return wishing to apply. However, with a very small out-of-state population, often hovering around 7%, it is a very competitive pool.

Many of their programs like Engineering, Film and Business are impacted like the California State Schools and as such, are very hard to get into. Like many of the other Texas state institutions, which have an automatic admissions system for the top 10% of their classes, this fills a good portion of their class making it harder for out-of-state students to gain admission. However, if you show unusual promise or fill a particular institutional need for one of the Texas State schools, you have a better chance. The out-of-state students are warmly received on campus and there are so many wonderful clubs and activities in which to be involved. And of course, Texas is full of traditions and school spirit that is unrivaled at many other schools!
“Hook ‘Em Horns”


st_edwards_austin_main_bldg
St. Edward’s University
One of the seven colleges taught by the order of the Congregation of the Holy Cross like Notre Dame, this school is close to my heart because of its mascot. Like Summit High School, they are the “Hilltoppers” and their mascot is the Goat. The school is perched high over the city of Austin with a magnificent view from their main administration building. Their Meadows Coffee House is representative of the feel of the campus, sort of a Brooklyn, NY, “hipster” feeling and diversity is the order of the day. Even though the student body is almost 4,000, students do not fall through the cracks but receive terrific academic advising. St. Ed’s was the #1 Producer of Fulbright Scholars two years ago among Masters Institutions. Students do an incredible amount of community service in the Austin area, and 74% complete internships in their fields.

Their Business program is very strong and they work in a maker space in downtown Austin called the “Capital Factory” to pursue their entrepreneurial pursuits as well as engaging in a Masters Entrepreneurial Program called ESTEEM with Notre Dame University.


howdy
Schreiner University
Schreiner University is a school of about 1,000 undergraduates located in the Texas hill country, about an hour from San Antonio. It has some very unique strengths.

If you are serious about re-application to a military service academy and searching for a college-level program look no further than the Greystone Preparation Academy. Here you can earn up to 38 college credits in a curriculum designed to meet your individual academic needs.

Another very special offering at Schreiner is their Learning Support Services program which is run by Dr. Gallik. This is a comprehensive fee for service program. You can find particulars of the program, which has a separate application at this link. Dr. Gallik will also be glad to answer any specific questions you may have.

Demystifying the College Search and Application Process

Join me at the Summit Public Library, 75 Maple Street, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 19th for a comprehensive review of the college application process! This is the second in a three-part lecture series sponsored by the Summit Free Public Library and the Summit YMCA.

I’ll be speaking about the Coalition for Access, Affordability and Success, which is a new standard application developed by over 90 colleges to compete with the Common Application.

I’ll also give you an update on the latest issues and trends in the college admission process. We’ll discuss a roadmap for what you should be doing at every step of your student’s search for a right fit school.

Bryant University

bryant_univ_1
Bryant University – Smithfield, Rhode Island

bryant_univ_2 Upon arriving at Bryant, I was directed to Admissions in the Unistructure, and immediately thought I had entered the campus of the future in Smithfield, Rhode Island. The Unistructure houses all the academic classes, a few lecture halls, the cafeteria, the Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) as well as the Amica Career Center.

Even though Bryant has a reputation for being a school focused on business, they have an unusual and timely academic requirement. You must have a major and a minor. If the Major is in the College of Business, the Minor must be in the College of Arts and Sciences, and vice versa. This ensures a totally well-rounded graduate.

Bryant is part of the Rhode Island Consortium so students can cross-register with a number of neighboring institutions for other courses, a real highlight.

Bryant is a Division 1 athletic school, but has some unusual and favorite non-varsity sports, including cornhole and bacci. In addition, President Maackley (beloved by the entire student body), challenges any student to beat him in a game of racquetball for a free semester of tuition. No one so far has been able to best him though many have tried.

The Amica Career Center is very active in helping students find internships and full-time jobs. The surrounding areas are ripe with employers like FM Global, CVS, Fidelity Investment, Hasbro, TGX, Alex And Ani, Toys R Us, Sirius, Z100 and Amica Insurance (which financed the career center).

Little known fact – their annual Bingo Night is so well known that the NEW YORK TIMES did an article on it on April 17, 2011.

Providence College

IMG_2413_workedIf I were the 2015 NCAA Ice Hockey Championship Team Winner of the “Frozen Four,” I’d host high school counselors and independent consultants in my ice hockey arena too! So we recently spent the morning in Providence College’s newly renovated Schneider Arena to hear presentations from the Deans of the Arts and Sciences School, the Business School and the Professional Studies School.

Providence College, with the only major in Public and Community Service in the country, also announced their new Musical Theatre Major. It is only fitting that PC should have this major since this is part of their application process where they look for a serious commitment on the part of applicants to community service.

They are also building a new 70,000 square foot building for the Arthur and Patricia Ryan Center for Business Studies that will be open in January of 2017. This shows where some of the program emphasis is being placed on campus.
The “Campus Transformation Project” is an amazing campus revitalization that encompasses the new Business School building, as well as many walkways and landscaping formations. There are many new areas that separate motor vehicle and pedestrian traffic, and create a whole new feeling on campus. It is a very exciting time for Providence, both physically and academically.
