Make your application a little less...common
During these two-hour small group sessions, students will review all sections of the Common App, match their Naviance account, request teacher recommendation letters, and work on their high school brag sheets. We will utilize a custom template for crafting Activity Section descriptions and I will provide suggestions on what to include in the Honors Section.
