Episode 250 with Shirag Shemmassian: How Students Can Appeal College Rejections
Episode 250:
On today's episode of the Prepped and Polished Podcast, Alexis welcome’s back Dr. Shirag Shemmassian, founder and admissions consultant of Shemmassian Academic Consulting. As a Cornell University graduate and Cornell admissions interviewer, Shirag knows what the best schools are looking for in prospective students during admissions interviews.
During the episode, Shirag gives you some tips on how students can appeal college rejections.
What to do if you get a rejection letter:
Tell admissions something you didn’t talk about that was meaningful to you
Offer major updates to your application
Ways to not do it well:
Don’t tell admissions they were wrong
Don’t simply repeat what you wrote in your application
Less than 1% of students who appeal get the decision overturned
Be Humble About it.
