Editor's notes
- If Muhlenberg is a real contender, request the Early Scholarship and Aid Review before you choose a plan. You'll see an estimate of your merit and need-based aid before deciding whether to commit through Early Decision.
- The CDS rates interviews, activities, volunteer work and work experience all important, and character very important. Fill your activities section with detail, and if you visit, use the weekday meeting with an admissions counselor.
