    I've been working in college admissions for more than a decade, starting with my time as a student ambassador at my alma mater, Loyola University Chicago, where I received both my BSEd and MA. As a student ambassador, I realized I had a passion for helping students achieve their college goals. If you take nothing else from this page, know that I am here to be a resource for you. Should you have any questions about the transfer process or Lake Forest College, please feel free to reach out to me at jbedenian@lakeforest.edu or at 847-735-5013.


    Let's Chat

    As your admissions counselor, I want to help you in whatever way that works the best for you. If you would rather have your questions answered during a face to face chat, you can set up a virtual appointment with me here.

    Is there something you have a question about now that you would like a quick response to but aren't ready to set up an appointment? You can ask those questions below!
