�Ļ�ӰԺ

For the first time, �Ļ�ӰԺ is offering four full-tuition scholarships to first-year students. This spring, the admissions office invited 30 top applicants to campus for interviews and an opportunity to get to know �Ļ�ӰԺ better. Honored at a reception and a dinner, the students attended mini-classes and a faculty colloquy. The interviews by faculty and administrators and an essay written in response to the colloquy will determine the four full-tuition scholarship winners.

To qualify, students had to apply for early-action admission to �Ļ�ӰԺ. The scholarship criteria includes a combined SAT score of 1300 and a GPA of 4.0. The mean SAT score of the 30 finalists is 1500. These students have also applied to Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, Vanderbilt, Yale, Claremont, Pomona, UC Davis and UC Berkeley.

“To attract top scholars, which is very important to us, we need to offer our best applicants the kind of opportunities available at other

“We are very excited about the caliber of the 30 finalists and hope many of them will decide to enroll at �Ļ�ӰԺ.”
