Untangling College Applications  

Marybeth Kravets 

9:00am - 9:45am 


College applications have undergone changes over the years, including the development of a "one size fits all" application so students did not have the tedious task of completing multiple applications. Today, there are more types of streamlined applications emerging making it difficult to know which application students should use.  Marybeth Kravets talks with parents about this trend and how to untangle the application options:

  • Common Application
  • Coalition Application
  • Universal Application
  • College Specific Applications
  • System-Shared Applications


Understanding Psycho-educational Evaluations 

Dr. Daphne Sajous-Brady 

10:00 - 10:45am


A psycho-educational assessment provides information for teens and adults to identify contributing factors to difficulties at school or on the job. Dr. Sajous-Brady explains what is involved in a psycho-educational assessment and how it provides clarification regarding:

  • Specific Learning Differences
  • Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Study Skills, Executive Functioning
  • Eligibility for services and accommodations in school and for standardized testing
