The Admission Essay in the Age of AI
7:30pm Eastern / 4:30pm Pacific
This November, the floodgates will open for nearly five million college applications. For the first time, many personal statements will have been co-authored by generative AI. As we race towards a future of AI-augmented writing, will we compromise our ability to know and articulate ourselves authentically?
The first generation of post-GPT applicants now find themselves having their essays scrutinized by admission staff more skeptical of who wrote them. This presentation will address the concerns families are having right now about how to remain authentic within this complicated, uncharted admission landscape. Join us for a presentation with admission essay coach Dan Lichterman about this important topic.
