Character truly does count. How will you contribute in the classroom? Will you be open and supportive of classmates? How are you in your current community? Have you shown leadership but also compassion? Will you challenge yourself and grow at BS? Perfect test scores and all or mostly all As is kind of a given at most BSs. NMH told us,now many moons ago, that when handing out FA they make filling special buckets which vary slightly every year a priority like hockey goalie or violin player, but they also look for what the then FA Director called “sticky kids.” These are applicants without a major hook who just stand out for their own individual strengths. Ultimately teachers want to have students in their classes that love to learn and actively engage in that process.
