Do Your Social Media Posts Matter When It Comes To College Admissions?

The truth is, you’ll never going to know whether or not the admissions officer reviewing your application is going to check your social media accounts or not.

The latest Kaplan survey found that 66% of admissions professionals polled consider an applicants’ social media FAIR GAME. If they check, (usually Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or YouTube) it’s often to learn more about an applicant that might pique their interest but doesn’t fall into the “Definitely Yes” pile based on their application alone.
