Competition is in every school!

Attended Tuck Chat today. The Admissions  Director-Dawna delivered the message,

1....." We'll find you if you're a strong application because our
admissions process is very thorough and personalized." "Regarding
questions about the number of offers of admissions. If you are a solid
applicant, we'll find you regardless of how many spaces we extend. The
process at Tuck is very thorough and holistic. MORE COMING"

2....." Regarding word limits, we're not terrribly strict about the
word limits, Honestly, we don't actually count them. However, I'd
strive for about 2 pages per essay max. You want to be both substantive
and succint"

3...." We'd prefer 1 page resume"

4...."Here's a general tip regarding letters of recommendation. The
best ones I've seen are the ones that incorporate vivid examples or
anecdotes. Ask your recommenders to do so. For example,last year I read
a recommendation that stands out in my mind. Rather than  making a
broad general statement about team skills, the recommender gave an
example of how the applicant stayed late at work to help a group of
co-workers..."



GOOD LUCK FOR ALL TUCK APPLICANTS.

以下是引用mianzhu在2005-11-27 8:31:00的发言：
能不能BRIEF一下,来点KEY POINTS。THANKS！

不好意思，当时没有记录很多。只是记了零碎的只言片语。大致如下：

1、学校的size小，学校的师生和校友都互相帮助，另外职业安置排名很高，校园及周边环境非常好。

2、在日常生活方面大家都会很熟识，户外活动丰富多彩。

3、课程还是很紧张的（尤其是一年级的）。

4、study group的6个人能互相补足，职业网络，学生们都是很和蔼的人，case/lecture视不同的课程而不同。

还有其他，没有记录了。例如说家属也可以免费旁听课程、滑雪课很好玩、一年级功课多、睡眠少、校友之间积极帮助、职业测试、就业安置人员积极帮助学生、有趣的催眠术等等。通过这些，增加了对Tuck的了解。

北京这边去的申请人不多，但校友倒来了6位，他们都非常积极主动地回答问题、介绍学校，有的校友在京只呆一天时间，还牺牲了自己和家人团聚的有限时间。由此可见Tuckee的团队精神。

另外，这几天忙着提交，没及时把上述情况通报大家，请海涵。

请教一个关于financial aid application的问题。要求提高recent pay stub和tax form，可是我今年都没有工作，怎么办呢？有没有人有类似的情况，提供些建议？谢谢！

我已经发mail问admission officer了，不过自动回信说在3天内回复，我怕赶不及deadline。

I missed the financial application for EA. But I think all your need is to submit a statement/letter that you have not been working for this year.

On BW Forum, several people have recevied admission calls from the school, anyone here!?
