There is no single path to admission to a selective college. Test scores are important, but no test score or GPA—even “perfect” scores and grades—can guarantee an acceptance. At Summa, we seek to understand what makes a student unique, and help create a compelling, articulate expression of those qualities in the student’s applications.
