Selective College Admissions Five Important Tips
Selective College Admissions Five Important Tips Webinar: August 31, 2020 1 A few important notes: • Our priority in the college counseling program at Minnetonka High School – helping the student to find the right fit! • Our hope – to focus on going to a college that is a good match, not to focus on getting in. • Every student is encouraged to follow this application guideline – “You apply for admission to a college Because you would like to go there!” 2 Categories of selectivity – What does “selective” mean? • Most selective – acceptance rate Below 15% (Harvard, Princeton, University of Chicago, Yale) • Highly selective – acceptance rate of 15-30% (Boston University, Carleton, Colgate, Emory, Georgetown) • Moderately selective – acceptances of 31-60% (Denison, Denver, Macalester, Providence, St. Olaf) • Selective – acceptances of 61-90% (Drake, Hamline, Iowa State, Marquette, NeBraska, St. Thomas) Most selective • University of Chicago – freshman class of 1,726 Applicants 34,641 Admitted 2,137 (6%) ACT mid-50th 33-35 Top 10% 99% % Graduating 95% Highly selective • Carleton College – freshman class of 525 Applicants 7,324 Admitted 1,401 (19%) ACT mid-50th 31-34 Top 10% 71% % Graduating 92% Highly selective • Boston University – freshman class of 3,156 Applicants 62,224 Admitted 11,786 (20%) ACT mid-50th 30-33 Top 10% 64% % Graduating 88% Moderately selective • University of Denver – freshman class of 1,351 Applicants 21,028 Admitted 12,345 (58%) ACT mid-50th 26-31 Top 10% 39% % Graduating 77% Selective • Drake University – freshman class of 782 Applicants 6,944 Admitted 4,697 (68%) ACT mid-50th 24-30 Top 10% 39% % Graduating 82% Early application options • Early Decision – students make a binding commitment to a first-choice institution where, if admitted, they must enroll. -

Report of the Working Group on Williams in The
DRAFT Report of the Working Group Williams in the World Working Group Members: Jackson Ennis, Class of 2020 Jim Kolesar ’72, Office of the President Colin Ovitsky, Center for Learning in Action Noah Sandstrom, Department of Psychology and Neuroscience Program Sharifa Wright ’03, Alumni Relations February 2020 1 Table of Contents Background……………………………………………………………………………………….. 3 Our Work…………………………………………………………………………………………. 6 Themes……………………………………………………………………………………………. 6 Aspirations for the next decade……………………………………………………………………7 Guiding Principles………………………………………………………………………………... 9 Recommendations……………………………………………………………………………….. 12 To Close…………………………………………………………………………………………. 14 Appendices 1: Williams in the World charge………………………………..……………………….…........ 15 2: Summary of Outreach…………………………………………………………………….…. 16 3: Tactical and Tangible Ideas That Arose From Outreach……………………………….……. 18 4: Centers for Engaged Learning or Scholarship at Several Peer Schools……………………... 21 2 Background The story of Williams’s engagement in the world is long and interesting. We have space here only to summarize it. For most of its life, Williams understood itself as a “college on a hill.” Students withdrew here to contemplate higher things before heading back into the “real world.” The vocation of faculty was to pass on that knowledge, while staff supported the operation by managing the day-to-day. Over time, however, all of these lines blurred. The beginning may have come in the early 1960s, when students formed the Lehman Service Council to organize their projects in the local community. Two student-initiated programs, the Williamstown Youth Center and the Berkshire Food Project, still thrive. In the way that the student-formed Lyceum of Natural History, some of whose interactions with other cultures we now question, eventually led to the introduction of science into the curriculum, so too in time did the engagement seed germinated in the Lehman Council disperse widely through the college. -

HANSON PresidenT’s Message Welcome to BSU’s biannual magazine – outstanding as ever, and now with a new name, Bemidji State University.

Once you’re done reading about the people and progress that make us all so proud, I hope you will give your copy an honored place on your coffee table at home or at work. As our 2013 Commencement ceremony approaches, how fitting that the cover story for this spring/summer edition features Moses Tsang.

I am also pleased to announce that another outstand- ing alum, Marine Corps Lieutenant General Thomas D. Waldhauser, will be honored as our Distinguished Minnesotan and deliver the keynote address. These pages are filled with evidence of the enormous difference Bemidji State makes every day, especially through our wonderful students and graduates, who achieve, lead and serve in so many ways. You will read about the rapid expansion of our international studies programs under the leadership of Provost Dr. Martin Tadlock, meet several more of our “Students to Watch,” catch up on university news and learn more about the lives of such impressive alums as Bill Colter, Rita Albrecht and Peggy and Sam Johnson. -
St. Olaf College
National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment September 2020 Assessment in Motion: Steps Toward a More Integrated Model Susan Canon, Kelsey Thompson, and Mary Walczak Olaf College St. Foreword By Pat Hutchings As part of an ongoing effort to track and explore developments in student learning outcomes assessment, the National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment (NILOA) has published a number of institutional case studies which are housed on the website. We are now revisiting and updating some of those earlier examples in order to understand how campus assessment practices evolve over time—through lessons learned from local experience but also as a result of changes in institutional priorities, the launch of new initiatives, leadership transitions, and trends in the larger assessment movement. This report on St. Olaf College is an update of theoriginal 2012 case study by Natasha Jankowski. Founded in 1874 by Norwegian Lutheran immigrants, St. Olaf College is a nationally ranked residential liberal arts college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) located in Northfield, Minnesota. St. Olaf challenges students to excel in the liberal arts, examine faith and values, and explore meaningful vocation in an inclusive, globally engaged community nourished by Lutheran tradition. St. Olaf has roughly 3,000 students, offers 49 majors and 20 concentrations (minors), and has a robust study-abroad program, with more than two-thirds of students studying abroad before graduating. St. Olaf has a long history with assessment, having participated in many different assessment initiatives over the years including a Teagle-funded project with Carleton College and Macalester College focused on using assessment findings to improve specific learning outcomes, and eth Associated Colleges of the Midwest-Teagle Collegium on Student Learning exploring how students learn and acquire the knowledge and skills of a liberal education. -
