Who are We?

The Admissions Abstract is dedicated to using research and analysis to provide the best information about college admissions and standardized testing to students, parents, and counselors.

The Admissions Abstract was founded by William H. Floyd. Will has over a decade-and-a-half of experience in admissions and education. He has been an admissions officer, application reader, curriculum developer, test prep tutor, and private college counselor.

Will has worked for national for-profit education companies, conducting outreach high school counselors and messaging to students and parents about the admissions process. He has also presented at schools across the country. Helping students find the schools they love and get accepted is one of his favorite things.
