Every year sees the publication of new books aimed at high school students looking to increase their chances of getting accepted to top American universities. Many of these books attempt to provide clarity and understanding of the university admissions process. Others reveal a "secret code" used by admissions committees that promise to provide students with the advantage they need to get the acceptance letter from their first choice university.
The truth, as any university admissions director will tell you, is that there is no "secret code" and no single strategy that will guarantee acceptance to a competitive university. With acceptance rates of 15% or less at America's top universities, admissions committees at these schools necessarily have to devise and regularly re-formulate a unique set of acceptance criteria each year to accommodate the new set of applicants and the university's changing student profile goals.
After studying hard throughout high school to get outstanding grades and SAT scores, taking challenging AP and Honors courses, participating in the right sports and club activities, and doing everything else they've been told is necessary to get accepted to the best universities in the USA, it is natural that students and parents should feel that is their deserved reward. Students' chances of getting accepted to a great university and having a rewarding educational experience are optimized when they have a clear understanding of how well their goals and preferences are matched with the universities they are applying to.
