Absolute best podcast for College admissions!

Having three children who have applied and are currently applying to college I can tell you that this podcast is the best. The information given here would cost thousand of dollars if given by a hired College admissions coach. It is truly a blessing to all of the overwhelmed parents and anxious kiddos trying to navigate this crazy college admissions process. Thank you so, so very much!

The BEST Resource on College Admissions

This is your one-stop resource for all things college admissions and financial aid! The host, Mark Stucker, is an excellent, knowledgeable, and accessible host who is not afraid to tackle tough issues or dig deeply into answering the relevant questions of the day. In fact, the entire YCBK team are experts in their respective areas and offer interesting, informative perspectives. As a parent who recently went through the college process with her eldest for the first time, I came to rely on the podcasts and eagerly looked forward to Mondays and Thursdays when the podcast dropped. This podcast helped me understand the current admissions climate and be a better support for my child. There isn’t an issue or topic that has not been previously addressed so make sure to take a look at the back catalogue and the website.
