Build Strong Connections with College Representatives
As you research colleges and build your college list, take the opportunity to connect with the admissions representatives for the schools you're considering. One of the best ways to learn more about a college is by meeting with a College Admissions Representative.
In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, we are fortunate to have access to a robust network of college representatives through the Dallas-Fort Worth Admissions Regional Network (DARN). DARN is a community of professional college and university representatives who actively support students and their families across the Metroplex. These representatives often visit high schools, participate in local college fairs, and host one-on-one meetings with local students to provide insights about the colleges they represent.
Why Should You Connect with College Representatives?
Getting to know the local representatives for colleges on your list has several benefits:
· Demonstrated Interest: Connecting with a college representative shows that you are genuinely interested in their school, which can enhance your application.
· Personal Insights: These representatives can provide detailed information about academic programs, campus culture, and application tips that might not be readily available online.
· Relationship Building: Establishing a relationship with a representative can make the admissions process feel more personal and less overwhelming.
How to Get Started
Use your downtime to reach out to college representatives and schedule a conversation. To make this process easier, DARN has created a Membership Directory, which includes contact information for local representatives, an overview of key programs, and important details about member colleges.
