US Essay Workshop With Stanford Admissions Officer- Martin Walsh
Martin Walsh was the Assistant Dean of admissions at Stanford University and the Former Director of Admission at Santa Clara University, in addition to being a member of the University of Chicago’s Counselor Advisory Board. He has degrees in History, Education and Law and 12 years of experience as a counsellor for students and 10+ years of experience training international school counsellors.
"Over the years I am not certain how many applications I reviewed, perhaps 5,000, perhaps more? Trust me: the reading cycle is exhausting and a bit of a blur. Happily, many of my questions about the mysteries of the admission process were answered."
"Since leaving Stanford I have shared my knowledge with students, teachers and counsellors at international schools in South Korea, Japan, China and Italy. And, I serve as an instructor each summer with the Counselor Training Center. I enjoy taking some of the mystery out of the college admission process; while also providing tips, guidance and insight to parents, students and teachers."
