“The Not-So-Secret Admissions Process”
My best friend Kim Charles, who now works as an admissions counselor at U of Wisconsin Madison, sent me this article “The Not-So-Secret Admissions Process” which was published in the recent Alumni Newsletter. Kim and I met 8 years ago when we were hired at the same time as admission counselors at University of Colorado at Boulder. This article is a little long and only really pertains to UW-Madison admissions, but has good tidbits of information about the Myths of Admissions overall.
