Common App Boot Camp

Seventy-five seniors got started early this summer on their college applications.  The third annual MLWGS Common Application Boot Camp was held August 16, 17 and 18, with a morning and an afternoon session each day.  In a supportive group environment, with Penny Deck and Rachel Loving, our two Senior Counselors at the helm, seniors worked on their Common Applications and college essays.  Students also enjoyed hearing from a special guest speaker, Ryan Hargraves, Senior Associate Dean of Undergraduate Admission, from the University of Virginia, who delivered a lively and humorous presentation on crafting the personal essay.  Go Dragons Go!
