Forbes: College Admission Gratitude

“There is clearly much to be thankful for, and also much work to be done. We must keep pressing on important issues within college admission and searching for ways to evolve. If we continue this growth from a place of gratitude, then we have already made the world a better place to be. Now take a moment and send out that one text or email of appreciation and watch it ripple.”

Brennan Barnard writes about the power of showing gratitude during the college admissions process and what, specifically, he’s grateful for.
