As we enter this new year, I am excited to share with you another coaching session I had with my Passion Project Bootcamp student, Erica! I’m sharing this coaching call with Erica on the podcast because I want you to see what it would look like if you were to work with me inside of The Passion Project Bootcamp or The Ivy League Formula Program.
In this episode with Erica we cover a lot of different important topics, and I answer the biggest questions she has. This includes whether or not she should work on her Passion Project with friends, and how to motivate them if this is what she ultimately decides to do. We also look at how she can navigate things if there’s a shift in her academic interests and major, and so much more.
I think you’ll learn a lot about the many ways to make your application stand out, and the different ways to show who you are to colleges that you want to get accepted to. Remember, it’s not about showing the best side of yourself always, and having 10, 20 or even 30 extracurriculars. It’s more about showing who you are in the most authentic and compelling way, and then backing that up with evidence.
If you are like Erica and have questions about the college admissions process, then I really want you to check out my free training! You can register for the free training here. This is where I share strategies that will help you land research and intern positions, create amazing passion projects, and get awesome results for your college admissions journey.
This is a brand new training, so even if you’ve attended one of my free trainings in the past, you’re going to want to attend this one! Don’t miss out. Register here!
