When I was in high school, applying to college seemed to be the hardest and scariest thing. I had no clue what to expect at all. So, I decided to share my thought-process regarding choosing to go to Dartmouth!
In this post, I discuss my decision to apply to Dartmouth through the Early Decision process!
I was recently a panelist at a Dartmouth event, and it helped me reflect on my experience as a first generation and low-income student.
Before applying and coming to Dartmouth, I had absolutely no idea what the liberal arts meant. Now, I love the liberal arts and could not be happier exploring it.
How to go about what I think is one of the most important aspects of the Dartmouth application!
Should I submit a peer recommendation as part of my application to Dartmouth?
Short answer: yes. Long answer: absolutely, totally, certainly, most definitely, resoundingly yes. And here's why.
Behold the answer to the question I have been trying to find a concrete answer to for quite some time… "Why Dartmouth, Gavin?" (Part 1)
If you didn't physically visit campus before choosing Dartmouth, how did you make the decision to enroll?
Honestly, for me, making the decision to go to Dartmouth was not so simple at first. Originally, I had planned to go to any music school in New York and become a professional tubist alongside other classical musicians.
It´s that time of the year again. As the early decision deadline approaches, one defining question stands out amongst many: why here, and not anywhere else?
