Reflections on the College Application Process
from ACE · host K & V
The first grueling round of college applications has passed. In this episode, K+V work to see the college applications process for what it is (a circus!) and look beyond the stress to see what it offers. We contemplate questions such as: How might writing the essays invite self-reflection? Why are we expecting fairness from an unfair system? What do college applications teach us about life and failure? We answer these questions in a cozy hour chat that ends with a heartfelt read-aloud of a bona fide teacher’s thoughts and support in an email. Check us out on spotify or apple!
