A different approach to a college admissions video. The applications process as a non-traditional student presents some rather unique challenges, and at times does not feel optimized for those who are not coming straight from High School. A lot of this revolves around the overarching objective one should have in mind when developing their application and considering what to focus on, in addition to some of the common questions and misconceptions about Transfer students at Stanford University.
Expect videos featuring other transfer students and videos more tailored to Veteran applicants in the near future.
Feel free to drop comments below with more specific questions -- I'll try my best to keep up with them or perhaps compile another video that isn't as maddeningly vague.
I'll be adding resources to the description as I rediscover them
