As part of the continuing collaboration between our NJ Ivy + alumni clubs, The Wharton Club of New Jersey would like to invite you and your members to:

“The Art & Science of College Admissions”
A Special Live Event for Teens and their Parents 

College admissions has changed dramatically in recent years and continues to rapidly evolve, often leaving students (and parents) overwhelmed and unsure of how to proceed.

This event, led by Laurie Kopp Weingarten, co-founder of One-Stop College Counseling, will help families navigate the admission process. Laurie is an alumnus of both Wharton and Harvard Business School.

Laurie will examine the objective (class rigor, grades, test scores) and the subjective (extracurricular activities, teachers/counselor recs, essays, interviews, and character) measures most valued by admission officers. She will also cover application strategies, including demonstrating interest and choosing early-action/early-decision schools. Participants will leave with a clear picture of what really counts, and they’ll be better equipped to tackle the complex world of college admissions.

The presentation will also cover the recent changes such as the Supreme Court Affirmative Action ruling, the rise of Chat GPT and other AI, and the push to end legacy admissions.
