Below is a list of all blog posts from the People Places Pines blog by Dartmouth College.
As I noted in an earlier blog post, we promised to adapt our admissions requirements as the situation evolved and as warranted. The situation has evolved, and a policy pause is now warranted.
Here's a counterintuitive thing about a college search as it takes shape: it's not about a college. A college search is your search. So start with you. Hello, you.
"The Search," the podcast that made me a podcaster, launched this week. I'm calling it an act of admissions citizenship, a conversation about college admissions for stuck-at-home high school juniors.

The first steps in next year's admissions cycle have certainly been anything but normal for all of us. But the task at hand remains the same: you're looking for the right college, and we're hoping to engage you in a conversation about Dartmouth.

For my blog post this week, I thought I would share some of the most common questions students have asked me this summer!
