FWIW – Hopeful 2012er, my S (applied/accepted ED) found his conversations with DU students and alums last fall to be critical in making his decision. To add some facts that might be of interest to you, the senior he talked to last Nov is now choosing from an impressive list of law school acceptances and the alum (graduated in 2007) is working on Wall Street in a job he loves and got through DU networking.

DU knows that it is well-suited for those who value such personal contacts, before, during, and after the undergrad yrs. This is something that distinguishes DU from other (often larger) “cross-admit” schools. So the “yield marketing” strategy makes perfect sense – they are “walking the walk” of offering a very personal admissions experience, and hoping that those who value that same quality in their liberal arts education will say yes, while realizing that those who do not care as much about such personalization may not be as persuaded.
