SUMMARY:COVID-19 + Post-Secondary Admission Trends: A Positive Outlook
DESCRIPTION:Join Melinda Giampietro\, founder of Options Solutions Educational Consultants\, for an open discussion about the state of post-secondary admission and the factors influencing the 2021 cycle. This webinar will focus on what we DO know and what we CAN do to help students prepare and strategize for the next few years. We will explore academic and extra-curricular requirements and how students can differentiate themselves in an authentic way. With her usual optimism and warmth\, Melinda will also share practical tips for handling new school structures (quarter and hybrid learning) and ways to creatively return to extra-curricular activities. There will be plenty of time for questions at the end of the webinar. Please register at the link below. \nRegister here. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Intro to Canadian Supplement Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This three-hour session introduces students to writing components for Canadian applications. \nThe session will include a presentation that outlines the typical essay and supplemental writing prompts required by major Canadian universities and programs (e.g. UBC\, Queen’s\, Western). During this presentation\, session leaders will also provide writing and time management strategies and sample essays from previous years’ successful applications. Students will then be given time to brainstorm and engage in practice writing exercises. Options Solutions writing coaches will give students one-on-one feedback on their drafts. \nBeginning the application process early will give students the opportunity to make the most productive use of their summer and enter grade 12 with more clarity and direction. \n  \nWhat do students have to say?\n“I really liked the tips\, exercises and examples of past students’ responses and what was good about them and what could’ve been improved. This allowed me to take good notes and implement what I thought was good into my applications.”
