The book includes: • Information on how to assess your college fit academically and socio-emotionally • Self-assessment activities that students can use to ID their specific stressors and ways to alleviate those issues • Sections on physical, mental, and social wellness, each with data-backed insights and research to help define the issues and strategies for handling • Proactive activities for student use, with reflection prompts to help develop roadmaps toward a healthier status quo • Wellness highlights, e.g., information on colleges with exceptional track records in specific wellness issues • Resources for national and college-specific help

by Brennan Barnard Rick ClarkFinally! A workbook that guides you—and your family—through a positive college admission experience.College admission has always been complicated—and COVID-19 has changed the college search and selection process in profound and challenging ways. But the authors behind the best-selling The Truth about College Admission are here to help with a new college admission workbook that puts the complex process into the hands of students and those who support them. Packed with activities and exercises, it's designed to help students find multiple colleges where they can not only get in, afford to go, and thrive on campus but also enjoy the adventure along the way.

If done right, college counselor Brennan Barnard and undergraduate admission director Rick Clark demonstrate, college admission can be more like the college experience itself—an opportunity to grow, learn, discover, enjoy, and build close, lasting relationships. A companion resource to The Truth about College Admission: A Family Guide to Getting In and Staying Together, each chapter in this guide is designed to help high school classes, small study groups, or individual students and their families focus on the most important questions to ask, steps to take, and conversations to have as they apply to college.
