…letters are on their way!
The majority of our decision letters left the office yesterday afternoon via the U.S. Postal Service. All letters will be sent in time to meet our April 1 notification deadline, but we wanted to get the bulk of them out as soon as possible. Pictures are below!

Our average GPA is a 22.96.
Seriously.
We’re asked that question so frequently – “What’s your average GPA?” – that we thought we’d actually go ahead and calculate it. So we took all of the enrolled students in our current first-year class and averaged together all of the GPAs that their high schools reported to us last year. And the golden number came out to be 22.96.
(An Epic Poem by Tom)
’Twas winter of 2009,
The days were short; the air was chill,
And high school seniors ’cross the land
From months of work at last were still.

Well, my posts have not been as frequent recently. And that’s because we’re in the thick of reading season here. My colleagues and I are sequestered away in our offices, busily and thoroughly making our way through the 2009 applicant pool, reading and second-reading every application we’ve received, and preparing for the admission committee. We pride ourselves on the holistic and personal nature of our review process, but to accomplish this requires a great deal of time, effort, and focus on our part.

Just a quick update/reminder about where we are in various scholarship and aid processes.
