Episode 87: Pre-College Programs

Websites, brochures and social media can only tell you so much about what a college is like. While visiting in person is an excellent way to get a feel for campus life, there are even more immersive opportunities.

Today on College Admissions Insider, we're diving into pre-college programs. We'll learn what pre-college programs offer prospective students, what the experience looks like at Bucknell, and how it can help you decide where you'd like to attend.

Our guests are Carrine Phillips, senior assistant director of admissions at Bucknell, and Elena Mohan '27.
