[quote=Anonymous]OP - look at a few top schools too.

Dartmouth loves drama club kids with high stats! All the kids we know that got in there had a heavy arts component. Multi-dimensional bc of D-plan.

Listen to Lee Coffin’s (Dartmouth AO /dean) latest podcast.

“Yeah, so if you're a high school junior and just starting to explore college options and then a few months from now, you're gonna have to tell a story about yourself to those colleges. I mean, how do you see the lessons from this drama space informing that exploration now and then the storytelling later?”

——

“Well, and it's such a great parallel to a college application, because the best ones do the same thing you just described that a student on a stage will do. Like you're telling your story, but you're bringing it forward through these different elements and not just letting it lie there as a flat document, but you're giving it some sparkle. Let's help students think about like taking that selfie, like looking at themselves.”
