Beyond the SAT: The Requirement of Soft Skills in College Admissions

Virtual Webinar

Thursday, February 26th at 6 p.m. PDT

The last few years have brought profound changes to public and private colleges alike, and we are seeing these changes upending long-standing values in the world of college admissions. Notably, the SAT is no longer required by the vast majority of the Top 100 Colleges, and the U.S. Supreme Court determined that race can no longer be used as a factor in admissions.

So what are colleges looking for in successful candidates? Watch this webinar, presented by FLEX College Prep founder and CEO Danny Byun, to gain insight on the new standards for college admissions!

1. Learn how colleges like the UCs and the Ivies are now using personality rubrics and assessments instead of standardized test scores to identify desirable applicants.


2. Understand how colleges evaluate students to determine who will make a positive impact on their campuses.


3. Learn about the new soft skills requirements for K-12 and college admissions.
Find out how you can prepare your student for success in high school, college, and beyond!
