Do you ever feel like your child's college acceptance is the grade that you are getting for 18 years of parenting? Do we need to start preparing in elementary school? Middle? High school? Birth??
Listen in as I speak with Teru Clavel, best-selling author, journalist, and education consultant to discuss the importance of a strong admissions essay and how to support students during the process.
If you, or someone you know, would like an introduction to Teru, or to learn more about the work that my team and I do to help Dynamic Families invest and plan, you can reach me at Emily.Grace@Bernstein.com.
