Applying to college these days is complex, confusing, and stressful. It’s also a very, very different game from when today’s parents were kids.

Admitted is for families who want to help their teens prepare for, apply to, and get into college. Our goal is to help you cut through the overwhelming wave of noise and misinformation around the admissions process.

Join our community if you’re looking for:

  • Informed, expert advice from trusted, knowledgeable sources

  • The crucial information your family needs, when you need it

  • Inspiration and connection with others going through the same ordeal

  • Humor and levity during a stressful, sometimes scary process
