  • Demonstrated Interest: What Colleges Really Want; Supplemental Essays: What’s the Point?; One Big Beautiful Bill’s Impact on Student Loans
    Today we go over some frequently asked questions about admissions. Ever wonder what colleges mean when they say they track demonstrated interest? Think that maybe sending weekly emails to the college admissions representative at your favorite college is a good idea? Host Sally Ganga is welcoming colleague Gabbi Tobias, who will not only define “demonstrated Interest,” she’ll tell you how much “interest” is too much and how much is just right. In addition, she’ll cover colleges that do not track interest. (Hint: Stanford and Harvard are two of them.) Sally will also be talking with colleague Jen Simons about the purpose and some of the different kinds of supplemental essay topics, and Michelle Clifton, college finance expert, will be giving updates regarding the One Big Beautiful Bill’s impact on student loans.  Learn More About Bright Horizons College Coach
