College_Application_Rejected_Deferred_Dr_Lowe_Admissions_Expert

Year after year, I hear horror stories from parents whose children were accepted into their SAFETY schools because they thought the college admissions race was just about grades, SAT scores, their perceived “unique” applications, generic essays and “perfect” connections. Their children are either outright rejected or deferred in the regular decision pool and then rejected.

I have even had four clients, this year, who assumed that they knew more than me, an admissions advisor with 29 years of experience, not follow my recommendations and advice to their essays and applications……only to be outright rejected from their top-choice schools.

Dr. Lowe specializes in helping students get into their top choice schools through our SECOND CHANCE programs – Off Deferral List and Reapplication-Transfer. Dr. Paul develops winning admissions strategies to help students off the deferral list to be accepted in the regular decision pool. He also successfully helps students who were rejected from the Ivies to transfer to the Ivies from their safety schools. We a have a 95% Acceptance rate with these programs, because by reviewing student applications and profiles and their mistakes, we know what went wrong!

If your child is among the students who were deferred and/or rejected you should consider the SECOND CHANCE Admissions programs.

Everyone deserves a SECOND CHANCE. This time hire and follow the winning admissions advice of an expert!

Dr. Paul Lowe discusses Katy Independent School District (KISD) – 2024

Dr_Paul_Lowe_College_BS_MD_AdmissionsKaty_Independent_School_District_small

March 21, 2024March 22, 2024 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

Katy Independent School District (KISD), in Texas, contains 8 high schools. Over the past 5 years, MANY parents of high school students have contacted us regarding our college and BS/MD admissions advisory services. Dr. Paul Lowe and his team have worked with students from several schools including:

Seven Lakes High School
Tomkins High School
Cinco Ranch High School
Taylor Ranch High School

According to KISD Chief Financial Officer, Christopher Smith, KISD faces a projected budgetary shortfall of $13 million for fiscal year 2024-2025. This shortfall may affect budgetary cuts that could possibility affect: “(1) Modifying or phasing out school programs. (2) Teachers and staff. (3) Core student programs and services.”

Despite the fact that they are all excellent high schools, MANY parents contact Dr. Lowe because they mentioned that because of the size of the schools, school counselors are either unable to provide continuous weekly or biweekly individualized college and/or BS/MD admissions services to each student. The senior class size for some of these schools exceed 600 students.

With the projected budgetary shortfall of $13 million and the continual changes in college/BSMD admissions, students will need additional help.

We are happy to report that our clients from these schools were accepted to their top-choice colleges and universities and BS/MD programs.

New_Jersey_Private_Schools_Dr_Paul_Lowe_Admissions_Advisor

(1) Families who have been waitlisted can either attempt on their own to be removed from the waitlist (not recommended) or hire an expert who has the track record of success in admissions to private schools.

(2) Families who have been rejected should try to reapply with the help of an admissions advisor who is an expert in the private school reapplication process. Why? They do not want to make the same mistakes twice.

How to Get Into Medical School After You’ve Been Rejected

February 14, 2024February 14, 2024 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

Many students believe that to be a competitive medical school applicant you need to:

Do well in your courses,
Do well on your MCAT.
Take full course
Shadow multiple physicians
Engage in research.
Serve regularly in meaningful ways in your community.
Gain hands-on patient care experiences
Obtain glowing letters of recommendations
Completed applications and essays

If it were that easy to be accepted, then everyone who applied would be accepted into medical school. Every year, over 50,000 students apply to medical school, but 60% are rejected! Statistics from the Association of American Medical Colleges reveal that about 17,000 more applicants sought admission to a U.S. med school during the 2021-2022 school year than nine years prior, a nearly 38% increase.

Here are reasons why more students being rejected:

Increase number of medical school applicants
Greater scrutiny of medical school applications
Mistakes on medical school applications
Low GPA
Low MCAT scores
Poor letters of recommendation
Poor or lack of advice

Here’s what you need to do if you have been rejected and will be reapplying:

Develop a winning narrative as to why you desire to and are committed to becoming a doctor.
Your application is not just about high MCAT scores and GPA, it’s about the interconnectedness of all parts.
Re-evaluate your medical school list based on your “best chance” schools
Re-evaluate your medical school application. Is it admissions ready?
Hire a medical school admissions advisor/expert who understands the re-application process and has the track record of helping students who are re-applying to be admitted.
