Season 3 Finale: Live With Parents!

As the 2022-23 college admissions cycle draws to a close, Admissions Beat host Lee Coffin is joined by an audience of parents for the recording of the Season 3 finale. Gathered together on the campus of Dartmouth College for an admitted student open house, the parents of current high school seniors share perspectives on this year’s process. They also draw on their first-hand experience to provide advice to the parents of high school juniors as they guide their children into admissions prime time. Moderating the discussion is Jacques Steinberg, co-author of “The College Conversation: A Practical Companion for Parents to Guide Their Children along the Path to Higher Education.”
