When Mimi and I first met, it was like a cosmic blast with sparks flying and jet-stream bursts streaming in all directions. And this was only over the phone! She called to interview me for a book project about parenting she was working on at the time, but after an hour-long chat, I doubt either of us remembered the reason for the original call. Between her expertise on parenting and mine on college admissions, we could not stop generating ideas and advice. I am just about the fastest talker on earth to begin with, but I can tell you that by the end of the hour, I was talking faster than usual and Mimi was spouting more ideas per minute than I could keep up with. We knew then it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Over the next year or so, we spoke on an almost daily basis, exchanging advice about our own kids (Mimis are older, in high school heading toward college, and mine are younger, twenty-one months and elementary school), how to handle the stress of college admissions, and how to keep our collective cools during all the stressful times that invade any family where kids are present. It was out of these conversations that the idea for this book was born: why not combine Mimis expertise in parenting with mine in college admissions? No one had ever written a college admissions guide that addressed the emotional side of college admissions, arguably one of the most stressful processes families go through. Ive been doing private college admissions counseling for the past seven years, and at the end of the process, parents always surprise me by thanking me for saving the family rather than for helping their child get into a particular college (although they get to that eventually).
Mimi and I realized that families have to be armed with as much information as possible. A well-planned college journey is much less stressful than a haphazard one thrown together on an ad hoc basis. Timing is everything, and super-informed parents and students will always be more prepared and less stressed out than those who have not done their research. But sometimes families acquire all the hard facts without planning for the emotional backlash. That is where our book comes in. We have organized it in a way that is as user-friendly as possible. There are ten chapters that cover the ten most important aspects of the college admissions process. Within each chapter, on the left-hand page, ten tips are provided that are geared toward the hard facts, the knowledge you need to succeed. I wrote these pages to highlight the most important information for parents and students to keep in mind. On the right-hand page are strategies and advice for how to successfully approach college admissions without giving up your soul, elevating your stress level, or giving in to the urge to throw yourself off a tall bridge. Of course, Mimi wrote all the right-page tips!
