College Search Workshops for Penn Faculty and Staff Families: June 19

In collaboration with Penn Human Resources, Penn Admissions will host workshops for Penn faculty and staff families with rising high school juniors and senior students to help answer questions about the college search process.

College-bound students and their parents can be overwhelmed by the choices and requirements of college admission. What courses are important to take in high school? How significant are good grades, extracurricular activities, essays, test scores, and interviews? What should a prospective student look for in a college?

Workshops on Monday, June 19 will discuss these questions and more with Penn faculty and staff and their families, whether students plan to apply to Penn or elsewhere. The program will run from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. in Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall, 3417 Spruce Street, and will feature Eric J. Furda C’87, dean of Admissions; Elaine P. Varas, senior University director, Student Financial Aid; Janae Boone, senior tuition benefits specialist, Human Resources; as well as Penn Admissions staff who will lead discussions and exercises.
