<p>I’m about to miss the deadline for the essay/application which is May 8, because I don’t have time to write the essay in three days. But I’m looking at some of them and there is one that really interests me. Would it be possible for me to apply next year and join then instead?</p>
<p>Most communities (if not all) that are open to Freshmen applicants do not accept 2nd year applicants. Which community are you looking at?</p>
<p>if you were accepted into one of the MLCs, is it a bad idea to go through the whole fraternity rush process? What kind of time commitment am I looking at here?</p>
<p>That’s weird… I remember there being a different sign up time for upperclassmen if they were interested in an MLC, why would that exist if they aren’t open for upperclassmen?</p>
<p>I joined the Cheever program as a senior, but Cheever seems like it might be a little different from the other MLCs. I wouldn’t give up on looking into joining MLCs as an older student, though, OP-- shoot housing an email.</p>
<p>The Lloyd Scholars MLC recommended not rushing a frat freshman year. They said it’s too hard to do both. They did say he’d have time for a sport club team and other clubs, just didn’t recommend rushing a frat while doing his MLC freshman year.</p>
<p>So you have to apply to the MLC by the may 8th deadline? I thought those deadlines weren’t until later.</p>
<p>They let you know in June whether you got into one, so the deadline must be coming up.</p>
<p>There are a couple that are only open to sophomores and above like the global scholars program (or something like that) that is in north quad, the really nice new dorm.</p>
