Smart Parenting: Extracurriculars that Get Your Pre-Teen Into the Ivy League
- Zoom (Online)

Hosted by
Lucy B.
Former Oxford Admissions Officer
Your Child Doesn't Need More Activities. They Need the Right Ones.
Learn how to encourage exploration now, so your child develops the confidence, interests, and skills they'll build on throughout Years 6-8.
The applications for universities like Stanford, MIT, Yale aren't built in Year 10-12, they're shaped by the interests children develop in Years 6-8. Hi, I'm Malia Clark, Harvard alumna and Crimson Rise Strategist. Over the past 7 years, I've helped students discover their strengths, choose meaningful extracurriculars, and build the foundations for future success.
In This Webinar, You'll Learn:
- What top universities really value, and how those qualities develop early
- How to choose extracurriculars that match your child's interests and strengths
- When to encourage breadth, and when to begin narrowing your child's focus
- How extracurriculars naturally evolve from hobbies into leadership and meaningful achievements
- A parent's roadmap from early exploration to future university success
