In the fall of 1999, New York Times education reporter
Jacques Steinberg was given an unprecedented opportunity to
observe the admissions process at prestigious Wesleyan
University. Over the course of nearly a year, Steinberg
accompanied admissions officer Ralph Figueroa on a tour to
assess and recruit the most promising students in the
country. The Gatekeepers follows a diverse group of
prospective students as they compete for places in the
nation's most elite colleges. The first book to reveal the
college admission process in such behind-the-scenes detail,
The Gatekeepers will be required reading for every parent of
a high school-age child and for every student facing the
arduous and anxious task of applying to college.
