Most Students Fail to Demonstrate a Specific Interest

Embarking on the journey to college is exciting, but it comes with its unique challenges. By the time they hit 11th Grade, most students have already failed to demonstrate a specific interest in a topic that inspires them to do more.

It’s absolutely imperative that students find a narrow focus to investigate and champion. Universities want applicants who are driven by purpose, and the best way for students to prove themselves is a well-developed passion project.
