Where Great Colleges Say Yes, with Lauren Cook, Dean of College and Gap-Year Advising
Description
We are in conversation with Dean of College and Gap-year Advising, Lauren Cook. A 30-year veteran of College Admissions, Ms. Cook has worked on both sides of the process, as a college admissions officer for Mount Holyoke College and as a college counselor for students at JCHS. She is the former president of the Western Association for College Admission Counseling and also a member of the Fiske Guide to Colleges Counselor Advisory Group. Ms. Cook is much sought-after as an expert—she’s appeared several times in ABC-7 News’ “Getting Answers” program—and she is much sought-after here at JCHS by students and families who prize her incredibly calm, straightforward approach to the college admissions process, and her insightful and level-headed advice.
