DESCRIPTION:Register here\r\nSpend an hour with bestselling author Jeff Se
 lingo, who immersed himself in the world of admissions for a year to answe
 r the question on the minds of teenagers and their parents: how do college
 s select their freshman class?  \r\nThe result is his most recent book,�
 �Who Gets In and Why: A Year Inside College Admissions, named one of the 
 100 Notable Books of 2020 by the New York Times. For the book, Jeff was e
 mbedded in three admissions offices — the University of Washington, Emor
 y University, and Davidson College — and follows a group of high-school 
 seniors through the process and players behind the scenes, including the m
 arketers, the financial-aid consultants, and the rankers.\r\nIn this conve
 rsation, Jeff will dispel the entrenched notions of how to compete and win
  at the admissions game, reveal why families have much to gain by broadeni
 ng their notion of what qualifies as a “good” college, and explain how
  the pandemic impacts admissions.\r\nRegister now! \r\nAbout the Author:
