WERE YOU REJECTED FROM YOUR TOP-CHOICE COLLEGES?
IS YOUR CURRENT COLLEGE JUST A “GOOD FIT” OR IS IT FABULOUS?
DO YOU WISH TO TRANSFER TO AN IVY LEAGUE UNIVERSITY?

As an experienced admissions advisor, I have successfully helped students transfer to Ivy League and highly selective colleges and universities.

Here are some of the main reasons I see why students decide to transfer:

They are unhappy: Why remain in an environment for four years where you will be unhappy and miserable – and pay tuition, room and board that will cost you (or your parents) $250,000 – $300,000.
Institutional prestige: You may be attending your safety school and you want a second shot or you were discouraged from applying to your dream school. In any case, you desire what we call an UPGRADE.
Pre-graduate school preparation: Your current college may not have a strong pre-law, pre-med or pre-business program needed for graduate school admissions preparation or employment.

Whatever reason you may have for transferring, the bottom line is that you need to develop an effective action plan to transfer. and have a second shot!

Waitlisted at Top Boarding Schools – Now What?

March 17, 2023 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

Since March 10th, my firm has been inundated with continuous inquires (phone calls and emails) from stunned and stressed-out parents because their children are wait-listed. Many of the inquiries are from parents whose children have been wait-listed from ALL schools to which they applied!

Waitlisted_Top_Boarding_Schools_Dr_Paul_Lowe_Admissions_Advisor_Independent_Educational_Consultant

More families are choosing boarding schools for their children; thus, the competition has increased. Boarding schools that were competitive are now hyper-competitive and schools that were marginally competitive are now competitive. We have observed an increase in applications (and therefore waitlisted applicants) in top U.S. boarding schools. Choate, Andover, Ext

WAIT-LISTED means that “we love your child, but we don’t have spot available today, tomorrow or perhaps never”. Two factors are important to consider:

SOMETHING WASN’T RIGHT in your child’s application process. Parents make a lot of mistakes on their child’s application.
In this hypercompetitive environment, in many cases, wait-listed may be “forever”. Top schools rarely “reject” students outright. The outcome, however, remains unchanged…a perpetually waitlisted student has not been accepted and will not have a place in their private school of choice.

Many parents are mistakenly drawing from their skills as corporate executives, tiger moms, financiers, etc. rather than accepting the benefits of a consultant’s professional skills and years of experience in private admissions diplomacy. An understanding of real-time changes, as well as nuances particular to each school at a particular point in time are important for successful outcomes in private school admissions to top schools. Many parents also fail to fully appreciate and understand the human element of diplomacy in the selection process and decisions in private school admissions. As a result, after the waitlist, they reapply again only to be waitlisted AGAIN.

When parents call our firm to inquire about our services, they engage us because they understand the importance of investing in their child’s educational future. The successful outcome is invaluable and preferable compared to the prospect of their child being waitlisted again and again and again.

Hire a Boarding School Admissions Expert to Help Avoid Mistakes!

betting_college_admissions_Dr_Paul_Lowe_Educational-Consultant

February 17, 2023February 17, 2023 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

Applying to top boarding schools is anxiety-ridden and filled with uncertainties. I often hear of the mistakes parents (and their children) make during the process when they call me regarding what to do after their child has been waitlisted or rejected from their top-choice schools.

When I ask if they had hired an admissions advisor who specializes in top boarding schools the answer is always no. The next question they ask is about price. Here is the conundrum: By not hiring a qualified private school expert they have essentially saved tuition payments to their intended top school.

Here is a list of advantages of hiring a boarding school expert:

Boarding school experts have personal and current specialized knowledge of the educational missions of boarding schools and how to find one that would be a good fit for you and your family.
Boarding school experts know that the devil is in the details; they continually visit schools to gain first-hand experience and insight of each school’s unique perspective and workings.
Boarding school experts know what questions to ask you to assess how your application should be framed to demonstrate your child’s uniqueness, as well as how to manage themselves during their school visits.
Boarding school experts assist families with school applications and review.
Boarding school experts provide mock interview prep sessions for parent and student interviews.
Boarding school experts have the unique opportunity to learn from and interact one-on-one with the heads of schools, directors of admissions and senior admissions personnel.
Boarding school experts understand the diplomacy and advocacy needed for their clients.

It’s your child’s education and future, don’t make the mistake of betting incorrectly. Hire an expert! Our clients are accepted into Andover, Exeter, St. Paul’s, Lawrenceville, Deerfield, Choate, Loomis Chaffee, Hotchkiss, Taft, Kent to name a few. We must be doing something right!

Job Layoffs and Its Effect on BS/MD Programs

February 10, 2023February 10, 2023 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

Over the last several months, we have been hearing about planned job cuts:

Google parent Alpha announced plans to cut 12,000 jobs.
Facebook parent Meta Platform announced plans to cut 11,000 jobs.
Amazon announced plans cut 18,000 jobs.
Salesforce announced plans to cut 8,000 jobs.
Disney announced plans to cut 7,000 jobs.
IBM announced plans to cut 3,900 jobs.
3M announced plans to cut 3,500 jobs.
SAP announced plans to cut 3,000 jobs.
Dow announced plans to cut 2,000 jobs.
News Corp. announced plans to cut 1250 jobs
BlackRock Inc. to cut 500 global jobs.
Banks including Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Bank of New York Mellon have begun to cut more than 15,000 jobs in recent months.

The alarming increase in job losses across these sectors has caused uncertainty and unpredictability. What we are seeing is an increased in number of parents calling our offices regarding interest in BS/MD programs.

Why is there an increased interest and why do we expect an increase in applications to BS/MD programs? Here are several reasons:

Job Stability: In the case of job layoffs the pertinent reason to choose a career in Medicine is the job stability you will enjoy after graduation.
Doctors are high in demand: Doctors do not have to worry about a lack of demand for their expertise. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for nurses and doctors/physicians is expected to grow between 7-12% by 2028.
Compensation: Physicians are among the most generously compensated members of the workforce. In fact, you’ll see quite a few physician specialists among the top 20 highest-paying occupations identified by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS.
Citizenship: For international and H-4 visa students, it’s one of the fastest ways to attain U.S. citizenship because the high demand and need for doctors.

The increase in applications coupled with schools using intangible as well as tangible qualifiers for admissions decision makes it more difficult for applicants to be accepted. BS/MD programs accept students with diverse interests, backgrounds, unique experiences, WOW factors and convincing stellar essays NOT students with just top grades, high SATs and resumes filled with academic awards, generic research and volunteer work.

This is why it’s important to retain the services of a qualified admissions expert who has the insider’s knowledge of how to successfully navigate BS/MD admissions especially when there will be more applicants and increased competition!
