ADMISSIONS PROFILE REVIEW
What do these weightages mean? The school reported on Common Data Set how each quality is weighted in the holistic review of the candidate’s application.
These charts show how students with different GPAs and test scores have fared in the admissions process, based on admissions outcome data collected in CounselMore. Read more here
Side-by-side comparison of the student’s profile against the school’s most recently admitted class data
Test Results - Visualizations such as SAT and ACT scatterplots to contextualize student scores
School Profile - Overview of institutional details and admissions characteristics
Application Guidelines - Key requirements such as essays, deadlines, and submission criteria
Using the above as an example, the counselor now has guidance to instruct the student of potential candidacy deficits. The above student might receive the following bulleted suggestions:
- The school you are interested in is interested in your knowing if you enjoy academics AND activities. Let's find ways to express your interests by getting involved in an activity. Or if you already have after school responsibilities that require time commitment, please advise your counselor of these. If they include caring for a family-elder or a younger-sibling, these demonstrate more than your interests.
- Let's discuss your recommendations and why you feel you may not be able to retrieve positive letters of recommendations. There are ways to enhance those relationships and we can discuss these strategies.
Student Portal: Evaluate Fit (My Fit)
Students can also view their Evaluate Fit results from the Student Portal through the See My Fit column on their Student or App Tracker List.
Before students can access this feature, it must be enabled by a counselor.
How Students Use My Fit
Students can click See My Fit next to any college to:
- View their current Evaluate Fit results.
- Review which profile information is still missing.
- Complete additional information to receive a more comprehensive Evaluate Fit assessment.
As students add more information to their profile, their Evaluate Fit results become more complete and provide additional insight into how they compare with a college's application priorities.
Counselor Demonstration: In this video, Counselor demonstrates the student experience by explaining how students access My Fit (Evaluate Fit) from their Student List, review their current evaluation, and identify additional information they can complete to improve their Evaluate Fit.
