A Proactive Plan for Securing Powerful College Recommendations

Letters of recommendation are more than a requirement. They are one of the few places in a college application where someone else gets to advocate for your teen. And the strongest letters do not happen by accident; they are the result of thoughtful relationship-building, smart timing, and a clear strategy long before applications are submitted.

Join Collegewise founder and Chief Education Officer, Kevin McMullin, as he shares exactly how families can be proactive now to ensure powerful, personal, and persuasive letters later.
