Almost two months of 2007 are already in the books! Where did the time go? For the staff here in the Admission Office, it went to completing first reads of our Regular Decision applications. First reads have, for the most part, been completed and we are transitioning to the second review process where all applications will be read by a different counselor over the next week or so. As second reads are completed, third reads will be beginning, completed by senior staff members throughout this week, over the weekend and into early next week leading up to our Committee on Admission meetings (you remember those from EA, right??)...

While we are spending the majority of our time with our senior Regular Decision applicants, we haven't forgotten about the rest of you! We had hundreds of juniors and their families on campus last week as many high schools were on their February breaks; it was good to see all of you getting an early start on your campus visits! We also welcomed our accepted Early Action students back to campus last Friday for our EA Academic Program, which gave these students the opportunity to interact with faculty, staff, and current PC students and have their academic questions answered. A pretty good-sized group, as you can see from this snapshot:

I hope that all of you who attended had a good day on campus (despite the chilly weather!) and had all of your questions answered! If you still do have questions, feel free at anytime to contact your admission counselor or just post a question here on this blog and I will be happy to get you an answer!
