Editor's notes
- Your activities and character carry real weight here. Alfred's most recent Common Data Set rated extracurriculars and personal qualities as very important, alongside grades and rank. Use your essay and your recommender to show what you actually do outside class, and how you do it.
- Apply early if Alfred is near the top of your list. Early Action by Dec. 1 costs you nothing, keeps your options open until May 1, and comes with a one-time $1,000 grant if you're admitted.
