It’s no secret that getting into your dream school takes a lot more than good grades and high SAT scores.

On this episode of Quiet, Susan Cain will show you how to help your quiet teen navigate the college application process and how to get into the school that’s right for her. Plus, we’ll give practical tips to help your introvert adjust to campus life once she gets there. Today’s show is brought to you by The Great Courses Plus.
