Joy of College Application~




What I enjoy most about the college application process is witnessing the turn of a high school student toward adult life through meaningful content and dialogue. This is an important venture; it empowers them to think critically about their beliefs, value systems, how they belong to a greater community, and how they will fulfill their responsibility to humankind. It gives them dedicated and patient time to reflect on and plan for their lives…. Through these steps, they begin to gain more awareness of and respect for what their adult support group has had to consider while taking care of them. Forced to go inward, they grow~ gain a more insightful identity and higher sense of confidence. It is this process that wakes the student to the morning of adult life.
