Counselors Share Their Stories — Part V

It was a travel-filled week as the Amazon AWS EdStart Builders’ Workshop in Palo Alto kicked off just as the Super ACAC conference in Arizona wrapped up. After such a terrific few days with fellow counselors and college admissions teams, meeting such innovative members of the EdStart Program got me thinking about new creative solutions to help counselors and students through the college process. There is so much happening on the technical side that can support our planned Corsava features, I cannot wait! Discussing trends in admissions, meeting with potential partners, and learning about technical innovations to support our new applications combined to make the jump to summer and lead into fall all the more inspiring.

My Alaska flight just hit 10,000 feet, the throngs of people that constitute O’Hare on a late Friday afternoon are behind me, and I am excited to be heading for an 80-degree and sunny (surprise!) weekend back home in Seattle. The IECA conference was valuable, Chicago was at its best, and I am excited thinking about what’s ahead for Corsava after getting such great feedback from so many users. The cards made it into the College Essay Guy’s popular (and fast!) “60 College Application Tips in 60 Minutes” session, and it always makes my day to hear user stories about the impact the cards have had on so many students.

First and foremost, we are excited to share our new logo with you! It was fun to go through the design process, thinking about what makes our applications unique, while keeping in mind the cards that serve as the foundation of Corsava. I like the way it feels—very active and suggestive of a student making choices when considering their college options. We are looking forward to building new features for you and your students, and this logo has just the right positive attitude to help us do that.

Let’s Bring a Little More Fun Into the College Process

Doesn’t this image of my new puppy Petra just say it all!? A friend was walking down the hall and couldn’t resist taking this shot and sharing it with me. I just love the college counseling looming over Petra. Her attitude is contagious, and I try to channel her laid-back attitude on a daily basis. Besides making me laugh, it got me thinking about the whole college journey.

Stanford Report Extols “Fit”-Let's Take It to the Next Level

It is rankings season, and in typical fashion, those using a mix of variables to build an algorithm to compile an ordered list of colleges offer a popular way for students and families to evaluate and narrow their overwhelming choices. Following closely on the heels of these listings are press releases from colleges extolling the virtues of categories they excel in or moved up in, followed closely by articles bashing the rankings.
