Individual involvement outside the classroom is given attention in admission decisions. Information about participation in extracurricular activities, athletics, and community service should be noted on the application for admission. When such activities have resulted in honors and awards or other recognition of special talents, they should be listed on the application. A student may be admitted under a special exception to the admission requirements by the director of admissions. Students who have demonstrated community contributions and special talents in a specific curriculum will be reviewed as special acceptance candidates at the discretion of the director of admissions and the Admissions Committee.
Some preference is shown to children and grandchildren of alumni.
Admissions open house programs are scheduled monthly on Saturdays during the academic year. Open houses provide an opportunity to learn about the College and to talk with faculty members and students. Students and their families are welcome to schedule an informational interview and tour during the week. These appointments are available Monday through Friday and should be scheduled one week in advance. I program complete the application process by December 1 and are notified by January 1.
