OMG, it's suddenly a year later!

We're getting this blog ready for the Class of 2012, some of whom will be picked later this winter. For their edification, I am going to leave up the entire ThickEnvelope blog from last year. There's some pretty funny stuff. However, there are also some changes. Here are the notable improvements we've made to the enrollment process for this year.

  • Students can edit their ENTIRE housing application online until July 1. Last year, you could only edit your housing application by emailing an overworked staff member in the housing office.
  • All students must fill out their housing application online. Except for wait listed and transfer students, there is no paper housing application.
  • Students will not have the option of commuting for their first year
  • Students will not have to fill out any family information when they enroll -- that will come later
  • We will not provide the Outstanding Teacher nomination form on ThickEnvelope -- that will also come later
  • All first-year students will be provided with a pony
So, read the fun stuff from last year, and don't necessarily believe the technical stuff, because it may have changed.

Later... Jk, I will not leave up the entire blog, but will reveal stuff as time goes on.
