Résumé

"The U. S. college application process is an enigma"-this sentiment has become near-consensus among applicants. Each admissions cycle, perplexing outcomes abound: students with perfect SAT scores rejected by elite universities, while peers with less stellar grades gain Ivy League acceptance; applicants denied by a top-50 institution but admitted to a top-10 university. These seemingly illogical results often leave families frustrated and bewildered.
This perception of unpredictability stems largely from three cognitive biases:First, rigid mindsets and test-score determinism. Many cling to the belief that "scores dictate everything, " failing to grasp U. S. universities' holistic evaluation standards. To admissions officers, grades are but one factor among many. Second, information asymmetry. Most families possess limited understanding of admissions preferences, policies, and decision-making processes.
They see only surface-level outcomes, not the underlying institutional logic. Third, misinterpretations of U. S. higher education philosophy. Top American universities seek not merely "the best" students, but aim to cultivate a diverse, balanced, and dynamic academic community. To demystify this "enigma" and help applicants unlock doors to the Ivy League and elite institutions, we authored 100 Questions About U.
S. Undergraduate Application. Drawing on in-depth analysis of the above biases, this Q&A guide tackles critical topics-academic planning, extracurricular design, essay writing, school selection, and application documentation-providing clarity for high school students pursuing U. S. undergraduate studies, whether through DIY or semi-DIY approaches.
