College Talks August: State of College Admissions

August 20, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm JST

Is “test-optional” really optional? How are colleges changing their application process in response to ChatGPT and AI? The questions around college admissions are ever-changing and increasingly complex. Tokyo Academics is here to help give you some answers.

In this talk, Senior Admissions Consultant Tyler Kusunoki will be discussing the latest shifts in college admissions priorities and policies, and provide strategies and advice for families on how to succeed in the midst of these changes. With over 15 years of experience in admissions consulting and direct access to admissions officers of a wide range of schools, Tyler will be bringing information and insight directly from the admissions office to you in this seminar. This seminar will cover the following:

  • Is test-optional really optional? Now that many schools are hitting the end of their test-optional policies, will they continue or alter their admissions standards going forward?
  • How are colleges responding to the ChatGPT and AI, both in their admissions process and classrooms?
  • What major shifts are happening in terms of institutional priorities? Are there certain student “types” that are more appealing to most universities? What are they?
  • How might changes in race-conscious admissions policies affect my child’s chances of getting in? 
  • … and more!

When:  August 20th @6:00pm JST

Who: Senior Admissions Consultant Tyler Kusunoki, an admissions expert with over 15 years of experience
