The Case Studies Program is the “big” college counseling event of the spring, and it is the one you don’t want to miss. Students and parents from Kehillah Jewish High School, Crystal Springs, Menlo, East Side Prep, Woodside Priory, Pinewood, Sacred Heart and Castilleja and will be attending—last year nearly 700 people were here for the event. Parking will be limited, so plan accordingly and try to carpool.

Don’t miss this outstanding opportunity to learn more about the college application evaluation process. Students & parents will be on the “college admissions committee” deciding whether applicants should be admitted, placed on the wait list, or denied. Case Studies offer a fantastic opportunity to get an insider's look at how admission decisions are deliberated at most colleges in the U.S. You review and discuss four fictitious college applications and decide to admit, deny, or waitlist the applicants to an equally fictitious college. Parents meet in small groups with parents from other local independent schools, and students meet in small groups with other students. The "committees" are chaired by actual college admission officers from colleges and universities from around the country. After the workshop there will be a short college fair where you can meet all of the representatives and get information about their respective institutions.

On April 3, parents and students become the admissions committees. You will be assigned to a classroom, and two college admission officers representing colleges from the enclosed list will moderate your group’s discussion. Through the discussion, and with the guidance of the admission officers, you will decide who should be offered admission, placed on the waiting list, or denied admission. You will learn what information will be most valuable in determining which of the students is to be admitted to the fictitious college and thereby gain insight into how your own (or your child’s) applications will be reviewed. You will have an insider's perspective on the admissions process.

Please RSVP to sho@kehillah.org to let us know how many of you will be attending.
