Synthesizing responses DD and I’ve gotten at College Fairs:
(1) All of those are important for admission … but we consider all applicants who are strong in at least one or two.
(2) We encourage students to apply far in advance of the formal deadline, which is noted on our Web Site.
(3) The best source of information on scholarships and financial aid is our Web Site.
(4) Our college/university regularly updates it’s major/minor offerings. Your best source of information can be found on our Web Site.
(5) Yes, freshman must live on campus.
(6) Students aren’t required to choose a major until Junior year. But some schools, like Engineering, require freshmen to declare earlier.
(7) Students may choose to live on-campus or off-campus from sophomore year on. The percentage that lives off-campus changes from year-to-year.
(8) Freshmen are placed by the Housing Office. Upperclassmen may request a specific dormitory.
(9) All of our dorms are substance-free.
(10) Our Study Abroad Programs are very popular. The percentage of students that take advantage of the these programs varies from year-to-year. Most popular destinations change from year-to-year also.
(11) Fraternities and Sororities are available for students who wish to pledge. Greeks make a significant contribution to the campus community.

Keep in mind that representatives at College Fairs are salesmen.
