Homeschoolers Can Go to Harvard Too!Here's help to get homeschoolers into college - even Ivy League schools!
Your student may begin by wondering, can I get into college? Next they might think, "how do I get into college?" Finally, they may even dare to research "how to get into an ivy league school?" You, as the parent, may wonder if they have what it takes for Ivy League admission?
Here's what's required for elite schools (e.g., Harvard College admission):
- a gifted student with a strong work ethic,
- a lot of parental effort (especially with record-keeping),
- rigorous academics and extremely high test scores,
- proven leadership skills and activities that are measurable,
- a passion in something outside academics,
- a fabulous admission essay,
- great letters of recommendation,
- wonderful interview skills,
- volunteer work,
- and more!
And even when you have all those things, you also need a little luck, because college statistics say that most other applicants have those things too! Don't despair, though! Every journey begins with a single step and this book will get you started!
