It seems that this admission season is shaping up to be as intense as last year’s.
Here is a little snippet about admissions in a letter by Colby’s president, Bro Adams, to the student body:

“Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid Parker Beverage told the board
that Colby hit a new high mark for applications with the putative
Class of 2011. As of last week, he said, the admissions office had
received 4646 applications. Sixty percent of applicants are from
outside New England, and 564 are from ALANA backgrounds, he said. We
won’t know the final composition of the class until May, but Parker
reported that 142 students were accepted in the first early decision
round, including students from 13 countries and 24 U.S. states.”
