The college application landscape has changed — selectivity is shifting, early applications fill more seats than ever and students need more than good grades to stand out. In this session, we’ll zoom out to understand the big trends shaping admissions today, then zoom in on the practical steps students can take to prepare before application season begins.
Presenter: Jeff Kallay, Senior Vice President of Enrollment Consulting, Echo Delta
The timing - and even the role of campus visits - is changing. More prospective students and their families are visiting after acceptance and financial aid offers, while others are skipping the visit altogether. The campus visit still matters, but it’s time to rethink how visits and events align with this shift in the enrollment funnel.
Join Jeff Kallay from Echo Delta in an exploration of research, data, and best practices to help you reimagine your visit experience for today’s students and prepare for the upcoming generational shift in visitors.

One of the primary developmental tasks of childhood and adolescence is identity formation. Our students are looking consciously and unconsciously to find an answer to the question, “Who Am I?” In today’s youth culture, narratives on identity are prominent in media and on social media. What are those narratives? How are those narratives misleading children and teens? How can we point them to the one true identity for which they’ve been made?
