School Admissions: Managing the Process and Your Emotions

Private school admissions isn't just about applications and essays. There are tours, interviews, open houses, and deadlines—all while managing your family's stress and expectations.

The good news? Starting early changes everything.

February 12, 2026 | Noon ET | Online

Join Becky Reback, School Placement Advisor, and Dr. Anne Josephson, Licensed Psychologist, for a straight-talk webinar on how the admissions process actually works and how to stay grounded while navigating it.

 

Three Things You'll Learn

✔️ The Real Timeline (and What It Actually Takes)
We'll walk you through what you're actually doing from August to October—and why starting now gives you breathing room.

✔️ What Schools Are Really Looking For
It's not about one perfect interview or test score. We'll show you how to research effectively and communicate authentic fit.

✔️ How to Keep Your Emotions from Sabotaging the Process
Parent anxiety directly impacts student performance. Learn how to stay present and help your child show up confident—not coached.
