Chess as Preparation for Success: College and Career

By Alyica Hochberger, Founder of AK College Consulting 

How does chess prepare your child for success in college and beyond? Chess is a game that replicates project based learning and project based task completion in the workforce because there is an emphasis on development of critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and communication. College admissions counselors know this, and they value chess as an extracurricular activity when they see it on a student’s college application. Additionally, students who play chess have an opportunity to share their thoughtful narrative as a chess player when they write their personal essay for college admissions.
