Kaplan Continues Partnership with the Tri-Council

A partnership between the three councils and Kaplan Test Prep will offer students in the fraternity and sorority community many new opportunities in standardized test preparation.  The recently established partnership was created to help members of the fraternity and sorority community “take an important step toward accomplishing their career and academic goals,” said Suzy Olsen, Center Manager of Kaplan in Ithaca.

The partnership entails numerous scholarships and discounts that will benefit every chapter member.  Specifically, all chapter members will receive scholarships for all test preparation programs and will have access to Kaplan’s financial needs based tuition assistance program. This includes private tutoring, classroom courses and self-study programs for the MCAT, GRE, DAT, OAT, LSAT, GMAT and PCAT.  “Free and half off course certificates [will also] be awarded to chapter members at IFC’s [and MGLC's & PHC's] discretion,” said Olsen.

A primary goal of the partnership is to “further the academic performance within each chapter” to help individual members “take an important step toward accomplishing their career and academic goals,” said Kaplan.  In addition, chapter members will receive access to admissions workshops and seminars to help gain an advantage in the graduate school admissions process.  Ultimately, Kaplan and the IFC are both very excited about this partnership, which will prove highly beneficial to Cornell’s Greek community.
