Successfully Navigating College Admissions is a virtual Zoom presentation on Wednesday, November 18, 2026, from 7:30 to 8:30 PM, led by Ron Feuchs and Jackie Tepper, partners at Stand Out For College, LLC. Recommended for parents and high school teens, the session covers current admissions trends, the evolving test optional environment, researching and visiting colleges, key timelines and action steps, and the holistic admissions review process, including what admissions officers value and how to develop a strong personal narrative.
