The Elevator Speech

I love it when other people agree with us!  Every year we talk to the juniors in college class about preparing an elevator speech - a brief 30-45 second introduction that you can use anywhere.  You might try it when applying for a summer job or when you meet an admissions representative for the first time. It is, as this article suggests, a great opening statement to have in your back pocket whenever you need it.

And as always, the rest of the networking advice is also applicable to college admissions. Being yourself, listening, and knowing what you're looking for are just some of the keys to a successful college search.
