Yale Admissions: Why AI Isn't a Concern in Evaluating Personal Essays
Since the introduction of ChatGPT, there have been many cases of it helping students with academics, including securing high grades and gaining university admissions.
These developments have sparked concerns about the potential impact of AI on college admissions processes. But the Yale Admissions Office does not seem to care. Why?
In a podcast episode, two Yale admissions officers shared their thoughts on why generative AI tools are not likely to provide applicants with an edge in Yale's selection process.
You can access the podcast directly, but to make it easier for you, we've condensed the key points into this post.
Also, check out our interview with the Dean of Yale College Dr. Pericles Lewis on the use of ChatGPT in liberal arts.

École Polytechnique Calling: Umar's Engineering Journey
This spring, Umar Anvarov was accepted into École Polytechnique, a highly prestigious university in France.
Among over 5000 applicants, only around 120 made the cut this year, at just 2.4% acceptance rate.
Umar will be participating in a 3+2 program, spending two years pursuing a Master's degree at Columbia University after completing his undergraduate studies.
Attending the Freshman’s Admissions Program last June equipped Umar with essential skills in critical reasoning and evidence-based essay writing.
With an impressive SAT score of 1560, he also completed three A-level courses in math, chemistry, and physics at Tashkent Presidential School.
Last summer, Umar interned at Tashkent State of Chemical Technologies and Turin Polytechnic University, gaining valuable hands-on experience in material science and research.
He plans to focus on material science to contribute to Uzbekistan's industrial sector by optimizing material properties to reduce costs and improve quality.
If you also want to join the community of the most well-prepared students of our region, you can still reserve a spot at Freshman’s Admissions Program!

Freshman Co-op Assistant: Admissions Program and Full Support 2024
Freshman Academy's Admissions and Full Support programs require extensive financial and time resources. Therefore, the programs' costs may be an insurmountable barrier for some students.
Every year, we have selected a few such students, extending them an opportunity to join the Freshman team as teachers' assistants and social media interns, thus compensating for the program's expenses.
Beginning in 2024, we are excited to launch such an assistance for the wider public. The Admissions Program Co-op is an opportunity for students from families who cannot afford the Admissions Program.
Due to limited resources, we can only admit one student per cohort. The program will require submitting financial documents and additional interviews. It is entirely need-based, not merit-based.
Full Support 2024 Info and Registration: https://freshman.academy/full-support

Logo Re-Fresh
Freshman Academy goes global. Last year, we started working with the students from China. This year, we are planning to launch an office in Singapore.
We are building an international community of academicians, policy-makers, business people, and other professionals at the Freshman Alumni Network.
Our Admissions Program goes full speed as the students already in May produce their research papers, brainstorm motivational essays, build ECs, and draft resumes.
Our new logo reflects our gradual transition from a part-time college project to a fully-fledged company.

Freshman Academy x Teach for All Collaboration
Yesterday, the Freshman Alumni had a 1-hour discussion with the leaders of the Teachers for All network in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.
In particular, we met these distinguished guests:
• Feodor Shebertsov, Founder of Teach For Central Asia
• Maria Polyakova,Head of Recruitment at Teach For Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬
• Nigina Rakhmonova, Head of Recruitment and Selection at Teach For Uzbekistan 🇺🇿
• Dilara Kussainova, Educational Program Manager at Teach For Qazaqstan 🇰🇿
Teach For All aims to bridge the educational gap by inviting highly skilled graduates of international universities to teach at local public schools, giving them a ground-up perspective of the education system.
The Program proved successful in 60+ countries, while its many graduates were later admitted to prestigious Master's Programs and even became Ministers.
Freshman Academy will support the initiative with our network of students who started, run, or participate in Central Asian societies at the world's best universities.
The Freshman Alumni Network will continue assisting global projects that profoundly appreciate the local context and promote regional human development.
