My name is John Boshoven.
Over the course of my career, I
have helped hundreds of students
find the right college or university.
As the Director of College Counsel-
ing at the Academy, I make sure
that schools know about our
spectacular curriculum and highly
motivated students. I have traveled
to scores of colleges and universi-
ties, and many of the top ones—
Harvard, Jewish Theological
Seminary, Columbia and University
of Southern California—have visited
JAMD. Colleges want our stu-
dents. Two thirds of our seniors
who applied to the University of
Michigan have already been
accepted. What college or univer-
sity wouldn't want a young adult
who has succeeded in a rigorous
dual-curriculum program, is
involved in leadership and commu-
nity service, and above all is a
inensch?
