The 15-20 pages that you submit as a college application could not possibly tell the whole story. That’s why small colleges practicing holistic review encourage students to interview. Interviewing can bring your two-dimensional college application to life by giving you the opportunity to represent yourself in your own voice. Attend our workshop and learn how to highlight your many talents and accomplishments and to provide a three-dimensional picture of who you are as a college applicant.
