- Stunning academic credentials — well beyond test scores and grades.
- Exceptional love of learning and intellectual curiosity and originality. They often present scholarly work that confirms their strong academic credentials and recommendations.
- Outstanding extracurricularly, but it would be fair to say that it was their academic potential that was most attractive to the admissions committee.“Extracurricular activities” is whatever a student does: significant community, employment, or family commitments. There are many who spend a great deal of time helping to run their household, preparing meals and caring for siblings or making money with a part-time job to help the household meet expenses.
- Pursuit of some activity to an unusual degree.
- Strong personal qualities. They have made a commitment to pursue something they love, believe in, and value — and to do so with singular energy, discipline and plain old hard work. Such personal qualities are also useful long after one graduates from college.
- Multiple Intelligences (all-rounders) argues that there is more than one “intelligence”: that each person has a unique combination of interpersonal, intrapersonal, linguistic, mathematical, musical, artistic, kinesthetic, and naturalist “intelligences”. Students who make the most of their potential in a variety of ways are more likely to make significant contributions to a world that values talents of all kinds... using limited resouirces available to them.
- Recommendations from secondary school teachers and counselors... can illuminate such personal qualities as character and leadership as well as intellectual curiosity, creativity, and love of learning. Along with essays, interviews, and other materials in the application, recommendations can offer evidence of an applicant’s potential to make a significant difference to a college community and beyond.
- Look for those who “will educate and inspire their classmates over the four years of college, and that they will make a significant difference in the world after they leave [college]“.
