    <description>The college application process is notoriously stressful, both for students and parents. As admit rates go down and tuition costs go up, applying to college can be a fraught and anxious experience for the whole family.
But does it really have to be this way?
Two brand-new episodes of the Demystifying Independent Schools podcast dispel common myths about the college application process. In the first episode, hear from college counseling professionals on both sides of the desk about how to find joy, fulfillment, and meaning in the college process. In the second episode, learn about the importance of keeping an open mind about college options and creating a balanced list.
How can you bring joy to the college process? Can middle class families really afford a college education?</description>

In the first episode, hear from school leaders from across the country, sharing the value proposition of independent schools. In the second episode, learn about the financial aid process, and why an independent school education might be more attainable than you think.
