Zinch Gets a Shout-out on The Today Show

Yesterday MSNBC's Today Show aired a segment called "What Works and What Doesn't." What's the smart way for students to get into the college of their choice? Admissions authorities Terry Knaus of Indiana University and Martha Merrill of Connecticut College suggest savvy strategies.

Sherise:

So is that basically, give up if you aren't on the honor roll for 4 years straight? The way it looks, it seems like there isn't any way to get really noticed.

Ana Carolina Q.:

I am so happy for Zinch!


way to go :)

Gillian:

Holy cow, only 68% at Indiana! I need to do some SAT prep! Any good online sites for SAT prep?

Sherise -

Every school has different standards so don't let anything said on The Today Show discourage you. Connecticut College, where Dean Merrill works, is one of the most difficult colleges to get into. Furthermore, they take an individualized look at their applicants so everyone is considered and each student's strengths and special talents and experiences are taken into consideration.
