We Want to Meet the Real You
While we don’t require an essay for your application, we highly encourage you to include a written statement. This is your chance to express yourself beyond your academic achievements and test scores. Consider sharing your passions, your motivations, and any life experiences that have shaped who you are today. This personal touch can really make your application stand out.
Additionally, be sure to include all your extracurricular activities. Whether it’s sports, clubs, volunteer work, or any other pursuits outside of academics, we want to see what you’re passionate about and how you contribute to your community. This information helps us get a comprehensive view of your personality and interests.
Remember, the goal is to present yourself as a whole person, so don’t be afraid to let your unique qualities shine through your application materials.
All applications submitted on or before November 1, will be considered for Early Action admission and will receive earliest notification of admission and merit scholarship status.
Early Action applicants will be notified of admissions decisions before the end of November. There are three possible decision outcomes:
Applications submitted after November 1 will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with decisions released two-to-three weeks after the application is completed. The Regular Decision application priority deadline is February 15.
There are two possible decision outcomes: admitted or not admitted. Although unlikely, it’s possible for applicants to be offered a space on the waiting list if enrollment limits are reached. Admitted students are asked to reply with an enrollment decision (deposit) on or before May 1, the national confirmation deadline.
Students who are not admitted cannot reapply for admission for the same entry semester.
