Irreverent. Brutal. Entertaining. Surviving the College Admissions Madness argues that the application process is highly undemocratic and dehumanizing. University bureaucracies alienate applicants from their humanity and sense of self. Surviving and even thriving depends on digging deep into your beliefs and understanding your behaviors within the broader context of society. My book is the first of its kind to integrate applicant psychology with the sociology and economics of higher education. I equip readers with the vocabulary, frameworks, and tools to make sense of America’s broken higher education system, starting with the admissions gatekeepers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1622606613326-2NIS0RILURLE4CV9MX2W/AM-Kevin_9610_Squiggle.jpg Home - An Unconventional Educator Brilliant students require an exceptional counselor. I’ve dedicated my life to writing craftmanship. I read over fifty books each year across a wide variety of domains, and I’ve kept a daily journal for over seven years. After serving as a UT-Austin admissions counselor, I completed a prestigious Fulbright Fellowship in Malaysia. I’ve explored over 115 countries. College admissions isn’t just a side-gig or a passing phase; mentoring people navigating uncertainty is central to my identity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1621665168476-S8ZYB3FSEJKY6SOP8AUA/IMG_3991.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1621664957796-LQ20CDC3Q6JUZ0WUKO8N/image-asset.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1621665218203-T3DII5UAOFC8PO7Q2XB7/45773996_10155895639181526_723134151749795840_n.jpg Home https://www.admissionsmadness.com/products daily 0.75 2021-06-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1622607212507-2TZO6QO60B3MW6CZ5HDH/3d+AdMad+book+Cover.png Products - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1620971702996-ZJIKH1IZ8MS8KSTA1GY3/Course+Sample+3.png Products - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1622607246615-8KN2E16KGPM2FAJZ7LGX/3d+Your+Ticket+Book+Cover.png Products - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.admissionsmadness.com/testimonials daily 0.75 2021-05-26 https://www.admissionsmadness.com/contact daily 0.75 2021-05-26 https://www.admissionsmadness.com/services daily 0.75 2021-05-26 https://www.admissionsmadness.com/about daily 0.75 2021-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607cf7638e02860922ee0307/1621320033602-YCQRKRCODNKQYOEYFC18/Foto+21-01-2021+03+06+20.jpg About https://www.admissionsmadness.com/get-started daily 0.75 2021-05-14 https://www.admissionsmadness.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-youothers-7yydn monthly 0.5 2026-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560190004400-XTA0DF0S9WOZJUG994C8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Original_845035.jpg Get Started - Relationship with You+Others https://www.admissionsmadness.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-others-k6mk3 monthly 0.5 2026-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560189982811-KFAJF1TCUH1SXZ827UMC/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844923.jpg Get Started - Relationship with Others https://www.admissionsmadness.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-you-n6zfb monthly 0.5 2026-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560189874730-3B0TSLDUHTQ93497V3L8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844934A.jpg Get Started - Relationship with You
