We have been working like crazy to get applications out and hosted a little event called Junior Parent Night recently as well. In the meantime, my inbox is overflowing with newsletters and updates from colleges. I still have a huge stack of reading to do but here are some highlights so far:
Wheaton College - Wheaton's undergraduate students have won 139 prestigious scholarships since 2001 (among them 3 Rhodes, 4 British Marshalls, 6 Trumans, 4 Udalls, 4 Rotary, 9 Watsons, and more than 60 Fullbrights).
Bates had a 15% increase in applications last year a 2.9% increase in enrollment deposits. Bates continues to meet the full demonstrated financial need of their students.
Hamilton had a record applicant pool (5265 applicants) and a 27% admit rate last year. They continue to meet the full demonstrated financial need of their students.
University of Richmond reports a 9% increase in application numbers last year. And their men's basketball team advanced to the Sweet 16! And they hired 25 new undergraduate faculty.
NYU Poly ranked 4th among engineering colleges and 8th among all four year colleges in the U.S. in median starting salaries.
More updates to come! Happy (almost) December.
