You are invited to join Lafayette Dean of Admissions, Matt Hyde, in a candid discussion about the effort of searching for and applying to college. Too often prospective students approach their college search as though it were a process that needs to be endured. At Lafayette, Matt and his admissions teammates believe the experience to be a rite of passage that can (and should) be full of introspection, self-celebration and the amassing of personal agency. Matt will share thoughts on how best to approach this moment in time and maximize the opportunity prospective students have to effectively capture their reality in the confines of a college application.
