Hampden-Sydney App. and Rec.

<p>So the due date is Jan 15th. (EA) I want to send it in on sat or sun. I have the counsuler rec and my 1st. teacher rec, SAT, and AP scores. However, should I wait untill my 2nd teacher sends her rec?</p>

<p>anyone?? What should I do??</p>

<p>Are you sending it in or your GC?</p>

<p>Previous experience with one HS led me to believe student submits app. Rest will follow with transcript etc from the HS. Procedure may differ school to school.</p>

<p>I’d file it just to make sure it is in for EA (is it EA or ED?)</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>EA, and I think I submit.</p>

<p>I know I submit</p>

<p>I think you’ve visited. What’s the school’s best selling point?</p>

<p>Is it totally remote? We were planning on driving throughout Virginia over Easter Break and visit Georgetown, American, George Washington, Washington& Lee, William & Mary, Hampden Sydney, U of Richmond, UVA.</p>

<p>Whether we survive such a marathon remains to be seen.</p>

<p>Several members of my S’s HS are at Hampden Sydney. I have never been there. Some kids there were good local athletes and may not have made academics number one focus of high school. Here is my impression: Where we live and throughout Virginia…there is a definite Hampden Sydney network re jobs. Alum tend to remain loyal and I know Docs bankers and Hospital administrators with undergrad degrees from there. I get the idea that single sex education there addresses the needs of social personalities who did not really buckle down in high school but who have good potential once motivated by close relations with good teachers in a tight community. They offer merit money to kids with 1300s and A averages who attend or so I am told by local teens. The boys I know there are extroverts who are fun people and well liked by peers. that is about all I can add to your request for input except to add that they interact with others of the numerous private colleges in Virginia including easy access to public Longworth college. There is a huge furniture market in the nearby town that DC people travel to peruse and buy from.</p>

<p>I agree. For me, the best selling point is the single sexness “where men are men and women are guests.” (the school’s unoffical motto goes) I’m tried of going to school where it seems that every single girls night job involves a poll. I know that’s overgenerlizing. but that’s what I get for going to public hs.:frowning: HSC will I hope be a nice change. F2 what state do u live in?</p>

<p>just curious Faline2, what state do u live in?</p>

<p>We live in Virginia and I do meet adults who attended Hampden Sydney a lot–particularly older men from back when single sex education was more common and the University of Virginia and Washington and Lee were still Men Only. During the chapters of my life when I lived north and later during years spent in Georgia, Tennessee and South Carolina, I never heard of Hampden Sydney.</p>

<p>Faline2, does you S attend?</p>

<p>I sent you a PM></p>

<p>YAY!:slight_smile: I got it.</p>
