Presentation: "The Admission Game"
Presenter: Nationally renowned expert on college admissions process and best-selling author Peter van Buskirk
Description: Do you ever wonder who "gets in" and "why?" "The Admission Game®" (TAG) takes you inside the admission process for the answers. TAG is a high energy, high impact, interactive, case study exercise for students and parents in which the audience is transformed into an admission committee. In a manner that is more theatre than lecture, BCF experts engage audiences immediately in a "conversation" by talking with them in relevant terms that help ease the stress of an otherwise frenzied process. This signature program reveals the "hidden agendas" of colleges and provides insight into how decisions are made. Students learn to find the colleges that fit them best and to make decisions that help them compete for admission.
Time: 6:30 - 8:30 PM
Location: Upper Room Christian World Center | 722 Deer Park Road | Dix Hills | NY | 11798
* The Upper Room Christian School will be collecting supplies for local families in need at this event at the "Give a Pack. Give Back." School Supply Drive.
June 15, 2016
Presentation: "The Down and Dirty About the College Admission Process"
Features: Nicky Polanco (best Major League Lacrosse defenseman in history), Peter van Buskirk (nationally renowned expert on college admission process and best-selling author)
Description: Go inside the college admission process to develop a contextual understanding for who gets in and why. Learn from an insider how colleges use Early Decision, Early Action, the Wait List and second semester offers of admission to manage their enrollments. Discover the “Hidden Agenda” and see how testing, demonstrated interest and ability to pay can influence outcomes. “The Down and Dirty About the College Admission Process” is a very practical, logical interpretation of a complex and mysterious process.

* The Upper Room Christian School will be collecting supplies for local families in need at this event at the "Give a Pack. Give Back." School Supply Drive.
