Have twins on your caseload this year? Read what identical twin herself Beverly Brooks of @StMarysMemphis offers by way of tips & tricks on the #ACCISAdmitAll blog. bit.ly/3OnsG5f
It's not an easy time to be, or raise, a teenager. The good news: reaching out to teens, finding ways to connect with them, and working to see things from their perspective goes a long way toward supporting their mental health.
Holding @Harvard up as representative of #highereducation or @MIT as an exemplar for #collegeadmissions is like saying @AlabamaFTBL represents all college football or all @MLB teams can/should emulate the @Yankees. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
@NACAC’s Spring 2024 #collegefair SZN begins this month! Are you ready? Counselors, spread the word to your network of parents and #students. ow.ly/6UqO50Qq9Bv Exhibitors, there is still time to book your booth. ow.ly/ahn650Qq9Cw #collegefairs
Playing catch up on the to-read cue today. Martin Van Der Werf's (@Medium) five-part series on admissions observations from a parent perspective is note-worthy. Particularly resonate? The utter randomness and blandness of college marketing efforts. link.medium.com/qT89wbXVEFb
Such a lovely way to enter the space this morning, @NAISnetwork Thanks for sharing Yoanna's gifts with us @TJ_StL #naispocc
Themes and Variations on Arirang by Kristen Yeon-Ji Yun. Thank you, Yoanna Choi, of Thomas Jefferson School (MO) 🎻 #NAISPoCC
Had such fun gathering with friends and colleagues last night. Looking forward to another day of learning with #ACCIS folks at #naispocc.
Looking forward to sharing joy (and our many learnings from the day) with colleagues this evening! #naispocc
Greetings from the @nais #POCC conference! Ready for several days of learning and connecting with others at the confluence.
This is my annual reminder that, if you will see a high school senior over the holidays, please do not ask them where they are going to college next year. They don't know right now and they don't need reminded of that. Here's what you can ask instead:
Giving thanks for wisdom words from Charley @HillbrookSchool “When I started to view the college process through the dual lenses of vulnerability and shame, I finally gained insight into the most difficult professional moments I’d experienced..." bit.ly/47mcV5O
Now available: FSA announces prototype for the 2024–25 FAFSA, offering the financial aid community an advanced opportunity to better understand the FAFSA user experience. This is not a complete replica of the 2024–25 FAFSA form. ow.ly/9FS950PRV8x
When @iamwesmoore said “I’m not in the room because someone sprinkled diversity; I’m in the room because the room is incomplete without me” I got shivers. The message we need at this moment in time. #NACAC23
📢FAFSA Update: The 2nd draft of the new forms are now available.
Update: The forms will be publicly available by 6 a.m. tomorrow on reginfo.gov.
In this special edition of the Admissions Beat podcast, host Lee Coffin discusses the far-reaching implications of the #SCOTUS decision on race consideration in admissions with #NACAC members Rafael Figueroa and Jacques Steinberg. ow.ly/mUSu50PwETA @dartmouth
Ashley Terry of @bayschoolsf offers a timely reflection on working for your alma mater and transitioning from “student” to “college counselor," particularly for marginalized students. accis.memberclicks.net/index.php?opti…

While the picture used in the article isn't of @Mizzou (or any other UM system campus)... this certainly signals what the UM system values -- and what it doesn't. Anyone seeing other flagships making similar changes?
University of Missouri system to end race-based scholarships after Supreme Court ruling… How quickly many of these institutions “fall in line”, should be a warning for those looking into undergraduate and graduate programs at these institutions. stltoday.com/news/local/edu…
Now I have a better understanding of the adage: "Beware of a wolf in sheep's clothing." Here are my preliminary thoughts on the Supreme Court's decision in the Harvard and UNC cases yesterday. In short, the decision is both radical & disingenuous; and fact-challenged. A🧵
This is fascinating? Odd?
One odd, surprising, and important facet of the chief justice's opinion: He explicitly exempts military academies from his new ban on race-conscious admissions "in light of the potentially distinct interests" they may present. supremecourt.gov/opinions/22pdf…
