WORKSHOP

Admissions demystified

The college admissions process can be daunting. So many choices, so many requirements, so many questions.

The Undergraduate Admissions Office’s annual seminar for Penn families with college-bound children makes the process less intimidating. Admissions officers discuss what it takes to get into the college of your choice, whether it’s large or small, private or public.

The seminar takes place Thursday, Sept. 4, at 5:15 p.m. in Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall, 3417 Spruce St. RSVP: sherrimw@admissions.upenn.edu or 215-898-8587.
