Guest Host Aaron Ray returns to interview the host of Inside Admission Podcast, Andrew Palumbo. Aaron – the first guest on the podcast – turns the tables on Andrew and asks him about his path to becoming an admission leader as well as his own college search.

Episode 13 is the fourth installment in a series called “Inside the Admission Committee” and is the Season 1 Finale. Andrew talks with Aaron about his university’s path to a test-blind admission policy and how his admission team has worked to address cognitive bias in the application review process.

The podcast will take a brief to record more episodes before starting Season 2.

Thank you all for listening this first season!

In the third installment of the "Inside the Admission Committee" series, Andrew Palumbo sits down with Vern Granger, Director of Undergraduate Admission at the University of Connecticut and Chair-Elect to the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) Board of Directors.

Vern shares his experience working in admission at several large public universities and gives an inside look into how a college that received over 40,000 applications this year reviews each application; you might be surprised by what you hear.

Also, Andrew discloses a bit about the origin of the podcast and how Vern is tied to the idea that started it all.
