initially review a completed application and request additional information before making a fnal decision.
Students are considered on a Rolling Admissions basis; decisions begin in October for spring applications
and in January for fall applications. Applicants are notifed within four to six weeks of submitting a completed
application, although we hold some applications for a second review. Decisions are made by professional
admissions staf members, who take into consideration college and high school (if applicable) grades, your
essay and other relevant information.
