Every college journey looks different, but for first-generation and new-to-U.S. students, that journey often starts with more questions than answers. How do you find the right school? What do U.S. colleges really look for? And how can you make choices that lead to the best-fit college experience?

Choosing a college major can feel like one of the biggest decisions in the college process — but it doesn’t have to be stressful. Whether you already have a few ideas or are starting from scratch, this session will help you explore your interests, understand your options, and make choices that feel both exciting and practical.

Join Collegewise for an engaging conversation designed for high school students, parents, and counselors. Our experts will break down what really matters when choosing a major — how to connect academic subjects to future opportunities, what admissions officers consider when reviewing intended majors, and how students can keep their options open while still building a strong application narrative.

You’ll learn:

✔ How to explore interests and identify potential majors.
✔ What colleges look for when students indicate (or don’t indicate) a major.
✔ How to connect your strengths and curiosities to real academic pathways.
✔ Ways to approach undecided majors with confidence.

If your student is certain, curious, or completely unsure, this session will help them feel more confident and informed about the journey ahead.

When it comes to college admissions, few questions cause more second-guessing than, “Will this look good?” From sports and clubs to jobs, volunteering, and personal projects, students and families often wonder which activities colleges actually care about — and how to stand out without overloading their schedules.

Join Collegewise for an interactive Q&A session where our expert counselors unpack the truth about extracurriculars. You’ll hear real insights from admissions professionals about what really matters, how to turn everyday interests into meaningful impact, and why authenticity always wins over “checking boxes.”

We’ll cover:

✔ How colleges evaluate extracurricular involvement (and what impresses them most).
✔ Tips for balancing depth, breadth, and genuine passion.
✔ Examples of activities that demonstrate leadership and impact.
✔ How to tell your story authentically through your activities.

Whether you’re a student, parent, or school counselor, this session will help you approach extracurriculars with confidence, clarity, and purpose. Bring your questions—we’ll answer them live!
