A new episode of NACAC’s College Admissions Decoded podcast is now available.

“Counseling Applicants and Families Amidst a Scandal” explores the messages unintentionally sent by the Varsity Blues bribery scandal. It also looks at ways to assuage the worries students have about getting into college.

The episode features insights from NACAC President-elect Jayne Fonash; Jim Jump, academic dean and director of college counseling at Saint Christopher School (VA), and Sanjay Mitchell, director of college and alumni programs at Thurgood Marshall Academy, a public charter school in Washington, DC.
