UCLA and Holistic Admissions

LIVE with Colledge | UCLA

The test-optional trickle has turned into a tsunami in college admissions.  As school after school steps away from a focus on testing, holistic admissions models—which assesses the whole student rather than just grades and scores—is becoming more and more prevalent.

As we enter this whole new era of college admissions, it is critical to understand what holistic admissions entails, and what students can do to stand out.

This week, I’ll be talking with Gary Clark, the director of undergraduate admissions at UCLA.  He’ll help us understand what colleges mean when they talk about holistic admissions, what kinds of applications rise to the top, and how colleges make decisions in a holistic manner.  We’ll also talk about how the pandemic is changing college admissions and the college experience.

If you are a parent with questions about essays, applications and everything in between, don’t miss our free LIVE Session “UCLA and Holistic Admissions” with Gary Clark this Thurs, August 13th, at 6pm.

At Colledge, we understand the importance of all aspects of the college application for admissions.  We help students decide on their final college list, and create a structure of internal deadlines for early and regular deadlines so they stay ahead of the curve.  As a result, over 85% of our clients are accepted to at least one of their top 3 choice colleges.
