SUMMARY:We Read it For You! - Who Gets In and Why by Jeffrey Selingo
DESCRIPTION:Who Gets In and Why\, by Jeffrey Selingo \nFrom award-winning higher education journalist and New York Times bestselling author Jeffrey Selingo comes a revealing look from inside the admissions office—one that identifies surprising strategies that will aid in the college search. \nGetting into a top-ranked college has never seemed more impossible\, with acceptance rates at some elite universities dipping into the single digits. In Who Gets In and Why\, journalist and higher education expert Jeffrey Selingo dispels entrenched notions of how to compete and win at the admissions game\, and reveals that teenagers and parents have much to gain by broadening their notion of what qualifies as a “good college.” Hint: it’s not all about the sticker on the car window. \nSelingo\, who was embedded in three different admissions offices—a selective private university\, a leading liberal arts college\, and a flagship public campus—closely observed gatekeepers as they made their often agonizing and sometimes life-changing decisions. He also followed select students and their parents\, and he traveled around the country meeting with high school counselors\, marketers\, behind-the-scenes consultants\, and college rankers. \nWhile many have long believed that admissions is merit-based\, rewarding the best students\, Who Gets In and Why presents a more complicated truth\, showing that “who gets in” is frequently more about the college’s agenda than the applicant. In a world where thousands of equally qualified students vie for a fixed number of spots at elite institutions\, admissions officers often make split-second decisions based on a variety of factors—like diversity\, money\, and\, ultimately\, whether a student will enroll if accepted. \nOne of the most insightful books ever about “getting in” and what higher education has become\, Who Gets In and Why not only provides an unusually intimate look at how admissions decisions get made\, but guides prospective students on how to honestly assess their strengths and match with the schools that will best serve their interests.
