Stand out in college BSM admissions

Competitive and selective college admissions is all about standing out!

High GPA, top SAT scores, numerous AP courses, stellar letters of recommendation, multiple honors and awards, varied extracurricular activities and the “perfect” high school simply means that your child may be viewed (by you) as the perfect student, but NOT the BEST APPLICANT!

The BEST APPLICANT stands out in the crowd gets ACCEPTED!

Year after year, our U.S. as well as international clients are ACCEPTED to Ivy League colleges/universities and top BS/MD programs.

In the ever-changing admissions environment (like sports), there are always uncertainties, unintended consequences and unintended outcomes. As a physician-scientist/admissions advisor using knowledge-intelligence, insight, foresight, experience, networking and research, I leave nothing to chance thereby increasing the probability for positive outcomes and RESULTS!

We provide each of our clients with a WINNING COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE to be accepted to their 1st choice schools.

After all, in competitive admissions like sports and academic/scholastic competitions, there are no second places….only FIRST places!

Year after year, U.S. as well as international parents who choose to retain us WANT their children to WIN!

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

Dr_Paul_Lowe_College_BS_MD_AdmissionsKaty_Independent_School_District_small
~ 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.

Supreme Court Ruling’s Effect on Ivy League and BS/MD Admissions

Supreme_Court_College_Ivy_League_BS_MD_Admissions_Dr_Paul_Lowe_Educational_Consultant
~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

For almost 27 years, I have been writing about the changes and nuances in college admissions.

The Supreme Court’s ruling against Harvard University and University of North Carolina could lead to an admissions system that is even more subjective and mysterious, as colleges try to follow the law but also admit a diverse class of students. The Ivy League colleges and universities and BS/MD programs are aware that a diverse class leads the enhanced learning for alumni and future medical doctors.

Officials at some selective institutions have predicted that there would be less emphasis on standardized metrics like test scores and class rank, and more emphasis on personal qualities, told through recommendations and the application essay — the opposite of what many opponents of affirmative action had hoped for.

It would be nearly impossible, however, to eliminate any mention or suggestion of race in the admissions process — starting with applicants’ names.   What is certain is that admissions committees can surmise in many cases based on years of reviewing applications and technology, an applicant’s race, cultural background and socio-economic caste.

Additionally, “Landscape”, developed by the College Board, is a tool meant to help admissions offices go beyond test scores and GPAs and considers what applicant have achieved in the context of where they’ve learned and lived.

Another factor (caused indirectly by SCOTUS) that will affect admissions – review of legacy admissions. Applicants whose siblings were admitted will now face admissions committees that will not factor in the legacy component.

What do the above changes mean for the college admissions environment for high school classes: 2024, 2025 and 2026?

My firm, in predicting the outcome, has already developed strategies and an admissions network and contacts to further increase our clients’ chances of admissions!…If you believe that your child’s chances will not be affected by the SCOTUS decision, think again! We have had meetings with BS/MD program and Ivy League admissions officers and understand how the decision will affect student applications!
