This fall 12 members of ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s admission team spent a total of 276 staff days on the road. They visited 850 high schools in 41 states and 24 countries. They were asked — and they answered — every conceivable question about the admission and aid process.
On Thursday, Oct. 27 from 8 to 9 p.m., three ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø admission deans will take questions online in ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s first Inside the ‘gate for prospective students and parents. Because the topics will be relevant to admission and aid processes at most four-year institutions in America, participants need not be applying to ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø to join in, and can be based anywhere in the world.
Online taking questions will be Gary Ross, vice president and dean of admission; Karen Giannino, senior associate dean of admission; and Lynn Holcomb, senior associate dean of admission.
Topics will include how candidates can prepare for an admission interview, what role in the process is appropriate for parents, and some common mistakes students make in their applications. The deans also will demystify the admission committee process, during which decisions about applicants are made.
To participate in the Inside the ‘gate live webcast, visit any time between 8 and 9 p.m. Thursday. Participants can pose questions through the interactive chat feature (no password or software required) or by simply calling this toll-free number: 855-277-6204.
Other options include tweeting your question to our or posting it to the Office of Admission . To meet ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s admission team, visit the blog.
