Are you dreaming of attending your dream college and wondering what it takes to stand out in this competitive college admissions process? The answer isn’t about doing everything all at once, but about having a strategic game plan and once you have a solid foundation in place first, you can focus on important action-steps that we execute inside our Passion Prep programs.
Last week, I hosted a bonus training for our Passion Prep students on this very same topic. Although I rarely share our Passion Prep materials as I like to keep it exclusive for our students, I thought sharing the audio recording from this presentation would be really helpful for listeners of our podcast. I hope this episode helps you create a personalized roadmap to achieve your goals so you can navigate the college application process with more confidence & clarity!
I’m also hosting a free live workshop this coming Wednesday that I highly recommend you register for. During this training, you’ll learn 3 high-level strategies you must implement to get accepted into your dream colleges, new trends that we’re seeing in college admissions, along with any policy changes that have recently happened. I can’t wait to support you! You can reserve your free seat at https://passionprep.com/live!
We’ve officially opened up our brand new 1:1 Premier College Counseling Program called the Accepted Club. Inside this program, we’ll focus on providing you with the best individualized support by focusing on your passion, strength and potential.

TUNE IN BELOW:
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE:
- What creating a theme for your college admissions means and why using one helps you stand out.
- Example of what academic and personal interest themes could look like.
- How to make your theme unique using a few sub-topics.
- Tips on finding subtopics to use for your theme.
- How an interdisciplinary focus helps make your theme unique.
- Ways in which extracurriculars can support your theme.
NOTABLE QUOTES:
“You don’t need to list every hobby you have on your theme because you can’t even fit everything into an application, but what you want to do is share enough that it will create substance in your application.”
“The way that we can really help you stand out is by showing evidence(s) that you engaged in these topics and that you know what you’re talking about.”
“If you don’t have your two to three subtopics, it is going to be pretty hard to get accepted because everyone is saying something generic.”
“More and more colleges are realizing that you just studying one major, or one academic interest, is not going to be enough in today’s time.”
“At the end of the day, we need more extracurricular activities that support your academic interest. It wasn’t like that before, but now I am seeing that is what is really going to help you stand out because colleges want to see your intellectual curiosity.”
