From our Founders Desk:

Finding the ‘Right Fit College - Arjun Seth

Over the years, as more students are looking to apply abroad, the dream of being able to attend high ranked colleges like Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Cambridge, Oxford has become a major part of young student’s lives in India. It is understandable that a student, exposed to popular media, dreams of sitting in dark red bricked walls of Harvard or studying in gothic halls of Cambridge. The yearn to find the best college to attend can also be understood by the fact that for many students, this is one of the first biggest decisions of their lives. There is, admittedly, some admirable quality in this ambition and I would be the first to acknowledge the powerful ambition that such students embody whenever they begin their application journey. Simultaneously, part of our culture’s way to quantify student’s success includes the kind of college a high school student can gain admission to. Often, the higher the rank of a college, the more “successful” a student is.
