I just want to take this time to wish you a happy holiday season and a wonderful New Year.
I think that as the year draws to a close, it’s important to reflect on the good that has come one’s way in the preceding year and to be appreciative of the many blessings we have enjoyed. While I am first and foremost thankful for my family and good health, I want to speak professionally for a moment. As the founder and president of Accepted, I want to express my profound appreciation to four groups of people who all deserve recognition and thanks:
• Accepted’s “back office” staff. The people who support the consultants, publish our materials, keep the site running, and provide non-admissions customer service. They are the unsung heroes at Accepted.
• The admissions professionals, students, applicants, alumni, and test prep experts who generously share their questions, thoughts, experiences, and expertise in Accepted’s community via our blog, The Admissions Straight Talk Podcast, and social media.
• Accepted’s amazing staff of admissions consultants. I’m so fortunate to have a wonderful staff of talented, dedicated admissions consultants who put their hearts and souls into helping our clients submit winning applications.
• Accepted’s clients, friends, fans, and followers. Without you, I wouldn’t have the joy of getting so many ‘Linda, I’m accepted!’ emails throughout the year, Thank you for allowing Accepted to be part of your lives and educational journey.
Thank you to all of you. And best wishes to you and your family for a Happy and Healthy 2018!
