The Applicant: An Insider's Guide to the College Admissions Process

The Applicant is an admissions guide written by a Stanford University graduate intended for parents, students, college counselors, and anyone interested in the college admissions process. Instead of promising "secrets", The Applicant uses the Perspective Method to facilitate students to develop their own reasons for learning, applying to college, and even finding a job. The Applicant motivates hands-on exercises for students that help them think about themselves and learn how to think about the college admissions process in a framework that is meaningful. In this way, it is unique in its approach and effective in its results.
