Applying for college is often a stressful and complicated endeavor. Students must manage various deadlines and portals, submit resumes and essays, coordinate test scores and letters of recommendation, and so much more.
A recent survey of 16- to 22-year-olds found that more than half of them said applying for college is their most stressful academic experience.
Should we rethink the college admissions process? What could a new process look like? And could simplifying the process lead to more accessible access to higher education?
In this episode, Melanie Heath joins Kevin to discuss if we should rethink the college admissions process.
