Let’s review shall we? At Transcend Admissions we are always immersed in admissions-related material so that we can have the most up to date knowledge on programs and applications strategies. We also make a point of reviewing all of the information that we think we know on a regular basis to ensure we are up to speed with what is important to our clients every single season.
In that spirit, we wanted to take a moment to create a summary that can link you to some important posts we have written in the past on application strategy. We often receive common questions from applicants and we believe that many of the blog posts below can answer those questions and help applicants start to plan their strategies.
