Choosing the right activities can shape your child’s future, but where should you begin?
Hi,
I’m Joy Nesbitt, a Harvard alumna who has helped students gain offers from Stanford, Dartmouth, and Harvard.
While strong grades matter, top universities are just as interested in the stories students tell through their activities.
With years of experience in college admissions and mentoring creative projects, I know exactly what makes an application shine. In this session, I’ll share practical tips to help you guide your child towards activities that build confidence and truly stand out to top universities.

In this exclusive webinar, I'll share:
- What top universities really look for beyond grades
- How to pick activities that match your child’s strengths
- Ways to turn hobbies into standout achievements
- How to spark curiosity and build confidence early
- Steps to create a profile that makes admissions officers take notice
I look forward to seeing you there!
❗️Please note: This session will not be recorded.
