Molloy College Continues to earn national Honors

ollege-bound students and their parents are always looking for an academic environment that offers the best fit for the student and the best value for their tuition dollars. Molloy has been ranked in the top three nationally in Money® magazine’s “best values” listing for two consecutive years, the only college in the country to earn such an honor. The rankings were based on a variety of factors, including graduation rates and earnings of graduates. This category was designed to “determine which schools actually add the most value,” according to the magazine. The recognition comes as part of Money’s® annual college rankings, which acknowledge the best of the country’s institutions of higher education in a multitude of categories. In addition to having been ranked the # 10 best value among Catholic colleges nationwide by College Values Online, Molloy was recently named the #18 “value added” college in the U.S. by The Wall Street Journal, arguably the premier financial publication in the country. Money magazine also ranked Molloy as the #11 college in the country in their list of “most transformative” institutions.

e are dedicated to providing our students with the best possible value. If you come to Molloy, you graduate with a job in your field at a salary that’s significantly higher than average.” Drew Bogner

Ph.D., President, Molloy College

Drawing on the Strength of the New York Metropolitan Region One of the many strengths of Molloy is its proximity to New York City. Nestled in the Long Island suburbs just minutes from Manhattan, Molloy takes advantage of the NYC metro region to provide its students with the highest quality internships and clinical placements. The largest metropolitan region in the country, the NYC metro area is a world leader in healthcare, business and finance, education, criminal justice,

performing arts and much, much more. What’s New Molloy, founded in 1955 by the Sisters of Saint Dominic in Amityville and home to approximately 4,900 undergraduate and graduate students, recently opened its new facility at 50 Broadway in the Oculus district of Manhattan. The space will be the new home of the Molloy/CAP21 B.F.A. in musical theatre, and will also host other academic

programs and special events. The College continues to expand its flexible learning options for many of its programs, so that students can take night, weekend, hybrid or online classes. Some of Molloy’s newer offerings include an online MBA, as well as a new degree completion program that will enable returning students to easily complete their undergraduate degree. Molloy recently opened the new Barbara

Plan ahead Finding the right school involves taking things one step at a time

The college search process is a journey of self-discovery. Even if your student has dreamed of going to a certain school throughout their school years, not checking out other options can only do you a disservice.

Searching for that ‘perfect fit’ Where to begin? You’re teenager is planning for college in all that spare time he has. Right? No. In the real world, he’s got homework to do, after-school commitments, a sport or instrument to play, maybe a job and, oh yeah, a social life. So how is he supposed to keep the college search and applications on track? “The most important thing is to be proactive,” says Stephen Barnes, an admission counselor at Saint Louis University. “It’s a daunting process, and every school does things differently, but that doesn’t mean that it has to be frustrating.” So where to start? Organize Your College Search If your son or daughter is still a few years out from college, they can start narrowing their choices now. Campus size and location, a university’s rankings and even how much it costs to go there aren’t likely to change dramatically, according to Barnes. Research important admission deadlines and remember — it pays to be first, sometimes literally. There are often scholarships or financial aid available for people who submit college applications early. Technology to the Rescue Yep, it’s true. That smart phone is now a college planning aid.

Countless free apps or even Google Calendar can keep those deadlines (and the rest of your student’s life) running right on track. Watch videos about top colleges online; take an interactive tour or research majors and programs. While you’re online, start a universal To-Do list. Another document should track the places you’ve applied, dates, and any passwords. Leave a spot for notes; there will be lots to remember after campus visits.

The high school years seem to fly by for most families. Before you know it, your child will be embarking on that all-important college admission process. It may seem daunting for many families, but if you jump-start the process, you’ll be able to remove much of the stress. Here are some tips from college admissions officers to keep in mind: Start early; the college search takes a lot of time. √ Let your child lead the search and help your son or daughter transition to young adulthood. √ What qualities (such as geography, setting, size, educational environment, major, campus experience, cost, “fit,” and other factors) is your student looking for in a college? √ Understand what standardized tests are required for college admission. And sign up early! Utilize college search resources. (Seek advice from guidance or college counselor, teachers, coaches, clergy, government officials, community based organizations, etc.) √ Make a list. (Organize schools into reach, target, and likely categories.) √ Research college websites and social media sites. √ Inquire about school visitation opportunities; visit when possible.

Help From the Family Parents can’t — and shouldn’t — do everything their child, but you can offer them advice. Accompany them on college visits and help them keep track of crucial admissions deadlines.

Expect the unexpected. √ Ask questions to gain a better understanding of each school. √ Talk to current students and alumni. Are they happy? √ Read student blogs, school newspapers, publications, and social media sites. √ Organize notes and pictures; keep journals.

The College Search Takes Time Make time for the college search by scheduling it for once a week or more. First, review the calendar and to-do list to see what deadlines and important dates are coming up. What’s urgent? Then spend some time on a longer term task, like comparing majors or researching financial aid options. You’re child will find the perfect school for the same way she succeeds in anything else. Research. Ask questions. And focus on the goal. n

Narrow the list of schools; internalize reasons for wanting to apply. √ Track application plans, deadlines, requirements, fees and fee waiver requests, etc. √ Determine costs: Use Net Price calculator available on college websites. √ Explore scholarship and financial aid sources. √ Financial Aid = Cost of Attendance – Expected Family Contribution √ File tax forms early. √ Apply!

Ranking public universities is far more than the cost, financial aid, location or academics. Understanding the criteria can help determine the best fit for you.

Making sense out of university rankings What’s involved in assessing the criteria College guides that rank universities on factors such as academic offerings, athletics, cost, financial aid, location, and student life can help you identify the public university that will meet your academic, social, and personal needs and interests. Two of the most well-known publishers of college rankings are “U.S. News and World Report” and “The Princeton Review.” Although each publisher’s goals are to provide information that helps students and families choose the best public universities and colleges, their ranking methodologies are quite different. Using academic indicators to rank a public university “U.S. News and World Report” uses quantitative measures and “unbiased views” on the most important factors in higher education to rank public universities. First, it categorizes schools by mission such as national universities, liberal arts colleges, universities-master’s schools, and baccalaureate colleges. Next, it gathers data on up to 15 indicators of academic excellence for each public college. Indicators receive a weight based on the publishers’ judgment about the significance of these measures. Finally, it creates a composite weighted score that is compared to the other schools in its category. Data are gathered from various sources including peer assessments from top ranking school officials, student retention rates, faculty resources, students’ abilities, per-student spending, and graduation and alumni giving rates. Using student opinion to rank public college To create its rankings, “The Princeton Review” surveys thousands of students from hundreds of private and public colleges and universities; 99 percent of the surveys are completed online. Its survey contains over 80 questions in 4 sections: “About Yourself,” “Life at your School,” “Students,” and “Your School’s Academics/Administration.” Most questions provide a 5-point rating scale ranging from “excellent” to “awful,” but some questions are open-ended so students can elaborate on their answers. The results of the ratings are tallied and each university receives a score that is similar to a GPA. These scores are compared to determine each school’s rank. The next step in the ranking process is to send write-ups to the private and public colleges and universities; thus, giving them the opportunity to make comments and corrections. The schools’ suggestions are compared to the survey data and changes are made when warranted. Finally, the publisher asks survey takers to review their schools’ write-ups from the previous year and grade them on accuracy and validity. College guides can help narrow your search Rankings may not be your sole determinant for choosing a public university, but they might help you narrow your search and determine the most ideal school for you. n

Gaining admittance

S-9

school activities gives colleges and universities another way to get to know you. Include student organizations, sports, volunteer work or involvement in your place of worship. What specific activity you do is not as important as the leadership and commitment it shows.

What’s the formula for college admission again? High school activities + public service (grades x ACT or SAT scores)? The truth is, there isn’t a college admission calculator out there. And that’s a good thing. Colleges and universities don’t just see the student as a set of admissions criteria, they look at the whole package — leadership qualities, service to the community, what you say about yourself in your personal essay and what others think about you in your letters of recommendation. So what’s in your admission tool kit? Read on to get the scoop on the college admissions process. Read the Admission Requirements Narrowed down your top college choices? Even think you’ve decided on an undergraduate major? Not too fast. Before you submit your college application, read over the requirements specific to the university and program you’re interested in. High-demand programs can fill up early. Plus, applying for college early can mean more scholarship or financial aid money for you — and a less-stressful senior year once you’ve been accepted. Submit an Application Get ready to talk (a lot) about yourself. You’ll need your social security number and other important information at hand, but you’ll also be answering questions about any

There is not just one college that is right for you. The college search involves looking for opportunities that match your needs, interests, and abilities —your profile, as a student and as an individual personality.

college credit you’ve earned, what you want to major in and writing essay questions. You can apply online. Many colleges — accept the Common Application. Write a Great Admission Essay Why does an admission counselor care what you think the best invention of all time is? Or what you’d do if you could travel back in time? They’re not looking for the “right” answer; they’re looking for an answer that

tells them something about you. The best advice for writing college admission essays (beside paying close attention to spelling and grammar) is to be honest and sincere. What topic do you know better than yourself? Write an Activities Resume Your academic transcript will tell colleges what you do in class. But grades aren’t the whole story. A one-page outline of your high

Ask for Recommendation Letters The adults in your life have been watching you grow for years; give them a chance to brag. If your high school is large and you don’t have a close relationship with your guidance counselor, choose a favorite teacher, a coach or an adviser to write a recommendation letter. You can also ask a mentor, your boss or a volunteer supervisor. Just remember, recommendation letters for college shouldn’t come from people who are related to you (sorry, Mom). Ace the College Interview One of your best chances to make an impression on a college admissions counselor is by talking with them in person. Be confident. Tell them why you are interested in college and what you hope to study. And the best tip for an admissions interview? Ask questions. A genuine interest in the school is what every college and university is looking for. Get more admission interview tips here. n

You’ll never be far from home. We hope your college experience is filled with good friends, good times and good memories, and may it be the start of many more great things to come. No matter where you land, you’ll never be far from home as long as you have your hometown newspaper to keep you connected.

Visiting a college campus is an exciting steps in choosing a college. If possible, it’s best to visit colleges before your applications are due. That way, you can be confident you’d be happy at any of the colleges you’re applying to.

Determining the right fit Start with a campus tour College visits are probably the most fun part of the college application process. When it comes to researching potential schools, there’s no better substitute for figuring out if a campus will feel like home. If possible, visit every college that you are strongly considering. No website, guidebook, or testimonial will give you a better feel for a school than you’ll get by seeing it for yourself. Many students change their minds after a campus visit. This is obviously preferable to changing your mind after you enroll! Get the most out of your time on campus with these tips. Mind the calendar. Schedule your visit while school is in session. You won’t get a realistic idea of student life in August (or if you attend during a special event like Spring Fling). Meet the experts. Talk to the current students — they may soon be your peers. If they have a problem or complaint, they will probably share it with you. If they love their school, they won’t be shy about it either. Come prepared with some questions to ask — specific ones will get you more interesting (and helpful) answers. Meet the other experts. Stop by the admissions office and introduce yourself. Let them know what interests you about the school so they can direct you to the best place for further investigation. Collect contact information and send a brief, friendly email thanking them for taking the time to talk to you.

If there is a sign–up sheet, add your name! Colleges do keep track of which applicants have demonstrated genuine interest in the school. A visit is a great way to demonstrate your interest. Some schools will let you interview with an admissions rep during your campus visit. If this opportunity is available, don’t pass it up. Take the campus tour. While it’s the most obvious thing to do, the official campus tour is worth your while. (Find out if you need to register to get a spot.) It gives the school a chance to show off its best features, like the newly-built theater or their rooftop planetarium. While you’re walking around, check out the flyers and bulletin boards and pick up a school newspaper to get a sense of what’s going on.… then venture out on your own. The official tour will probably steer you clear of the school’s less attractive features, like the shoddy dining hall or the tiny gymnasium. Take your own un-official tour by wandering around campus. If there are any facilities that are important to you, find them and have a look for yourself. Make sure your destinations include the library and the first-year dorms. Be a student for a day (or night). Some schools sponsor overnight programs in which you can stay with a current student. This is a great opportunity to get a deeper sense of campus life and interact with your potential future friends and roommates. Even if you don’t stay over, most schools will allow you to sit in on

lectures. Browse the course catalogue before you arrive, or ask the admissions office what classes are in session that day. Save the best for last. You’ll get better at visiting colleges with practice. As you compare schools, you pick up on the aspects you like and the aspects you’re not so fond of. You also figure out the right questions to ask, as well as the best campus spots to gauge student life. For that reason, visit your favorite schools last, so you’ll be in the best position to make comparisons to the others on your list. Keep a record of every college visit. If you visit many schools, your memories of them are bound to overlap. Use a note-taking or voicerecording app on your phone, or plain old notebook and pen, to keep track of the details you like and the stuff that you don’t like. When more questions arise (as they most definitely will), you can fire off an email for an answer rather than visiting a second time. Don’t rush to judgment. Try not to base your opinion of a school on bad weather or one boring class. There are bound to be sunny days and more interesting classes. Same goes for overnight visits — you might end up staying with a student who has very different interests than you do. At the same time, trust your gut. Sometimes it’s love at first sight. Other times, something feels wrong (even if you can’t put your finger on it). n

The process of choosing a college starts well before you find yourself inundated with acceptance letters.

College-bound

Navigating the learning curve Finding the perfect college is kind of like investigative journalism – you must do loads of research, ask all the right questions and visit the scene to gather first-hand knowledge and experience. College visits should start percolating in the parental and student lobes toward the end of junior year and the start of senior year. Road trips may be necessary, and several at that. The most comprehensive virtual tours, G-chats and online scouring simply cannot replace the experience of seeing real dorm rooms or eating in actual dining halls. Families should have a strategy for visiting college campuses and getting the most out of each tour. Consider these tips from Dr. Richard Bavaria, senior vice president of education outreach for tutoring authority Sylvan Learning. Cast a wide net. If your high-schooler hasn’t done so already, help them compile a list of potential universities. Ask what aspects of college life – sports, extracurriculars, campus/enrollment size, dorm life, religious affiliations, academic strengths and offerings – are important to them and use those criteria. Mark choices as dream, target and safety schools based on your child’s academic performance and test scores. The initial list can be pared down to a realistic number of colleges to visit. Get SAT/ACT prep support. If some of the dream schools seem out of range due to unsatisfactory test scores, get your student SAT help from teachers or tutors with expertise in these tests. “The level of competition to get into top schools is more intense than ever. The number of early admission applications has increased dramatically, with some universities seeing double-digit jumps. To begin the college process, most students applying to competitive colleges now take the SAT/ACT more than once,” says Bavaria. Go while college is in session. Summers and holidays can be dead zones for college life, which won’t give your student a real glimpse of the campus. Call ahead to schedule tours, and make sure college is in session and students are attending classes so potential applicants see the whole experience. Ask smart questions. Encourage your kid to question everyone — students, professors, advisors, librarians, coaches and more. Ask the same questions of different students and professors to compare answers. Parents, remember to hit key topics that students might forget, like financial aid and safety. You can usually trust them to inquire about food selection and social activities. n

FINDING THE ANSWERS For Kristina Truong, it’s all about what kind of print you leave. At first, Truong wasn’t sure she had made the right choice. She loved JMU from the start, but wasn’t entirely sure that her Computer Information Systems major was really the best fit for her. That changed quickly. “When I first chose this major, I just

“My favorite class was Database Design with Dr. John Guo. That is when I was sure I was in the right major for me. Everything he taught is applicable.” heard that I would get a job after I graduated,” the 2018 alumnae says. “The reason I stayed in CIS is because I think that’s the way the world is moving, it’s all about technology—and to be able to combine innovation with technology is a really cool print to leave.” The choice to stay in CIS helped Truong land a pair of strong internships and an

impressive commercial consulting firm job after graduation. One of the internships was with the Federal Reserve Board, working with its human resource analytics team to help solve a fluctuation in job terminations. Truong linked what appeared to be random data together to help show that much of the termination issue was coming from one office in one city. “Looking at data that you wouldn’t naturally connect together any other way and then using it to help come up with a potential answer to a complex problem is really cool, I think,” she says. Dream job? Data scientist. “We are always on social media, so each of us has a huge digital footprint and there’s all this raw data,” says Truong. “That data can be used to predict future outcomes, as well as evidence for why things happened in the past. With all this data that is being collected, it seems a shame not to utilize it for good.” JMU helps dreams like Kristina’s come true all the time.

The college search sometimes feels a lot like dating. There will be some colleges and universities where the spark isn’t there and a few schools you’ll absolutely love. Where better to get know each other than a college fair? A college fair is a great chance for you and even your parents to find out more about your top college choices and hear from universities you might not have considered. You can find out about fairs near you through your high school, online or by checking with a university that interests you to see when they’ll be in town. Starting the Search Going to a college fair is a little like a speed dating event, according to admission counselors. You have somewhere between 90 minutes to two hours to check out the schools — and sometimes there are hundreds to choose from.

Early admissions programs and policies How they benefit you and the school By Ann Bezbatchenko Early admissions programs are becoming more prevalent at universities and colleges, but they may be the most enticing and confusing part of the admissions process. The benefits, requirements, and definition of terms for these programs vary from school to school, so it is important to read the obligations for the schools to which you plan to apply. These programs can benefit you as much as they benefit the school. For you, it means knowing if you are admitted to a school early in your senior year. You can enjoy the rest of the year without worrying about keeping applications and deadlines straight or waiting anxiously for decisions. For the school, it means locking in students who are interested in their school early in the admissions process. This helps schools better estimate their incoming class. Early decision programs allow you to apply to a school early (usually in November or early December). You will receive an admission decision from a school in advance of their usual notification date. However, these programs are “binding.” If you apply as an early decision applicant to a school, you agree to attend this school if admitted. Usually, you are offered an ample financial aid package, but because you are

you may apply to other schools using their regular application deadlines. If you are admitted to your early decision school, you are expected to withdraw all other applications or decline admission to any school to which you are admitted. Early action programs are a little less of a commitment. Similar to early decision, you apply early and will learn of an admission decision from a school earlier than students who apply using regular admissions deadlines. Unlike early decision programs, most early action programs are not binding, and you are not committed to attending that school if admitted. You may apply to other schools and compare admission and financial aid offers. If you are unsure which school is the best fit for you or if you believe your senior grades and achievements will strengthen your application, do not apply to a school under their early admissions program. However, if you plan to apply under any early admissions program, it is important to do your research on all your top schools. Prepare your application files carefully, talk Early decision (ED) and early action (EA) plans can be beneficial to students — but only to those who with admissions counselors, visit campus, have thought through their college options carefully and have a clear preference for one institution. and talk with current students to make sure committed to this school, you have little school’s original offer. that your early admission school is your top room to negotiate a better financial aid You are expected to apply to only one choice. n package if you are unsatisfied with a school on an early decision basis.
