Editor's notes

• If you want the full-tuition Batten Scholarship, apply by Nov. 1 at the latest. Hollins asks Batten candidates to use the ED or EA deadline and to interview.
• The CDS rates GPA very important and your essay and recommendation important. With scores optional and only 14% sending the SAT, your transcript and letter carry the file.
