[quote=Anonymous] [/quote]Schools want to say 50 states. That’s the extent of the advantage of geographic diversity. If you’re from Mississippi applying to Carleton, it will help you. No school is struggling to check the Maryland or Virginia box and DC is irrelevant to the statement [/quote] If you are from the DC area, from an admissions standpoint there is no question you are better off applying to Carleton or Grinnell than to, say, Haverford. Whether that is deemed a geographical diversity “benefit” from being from the DC area or simply “less than the usual penalty” is irrelevant; what is relevant is how a student from this area might want to maximize admissions chances to these schools.[/quote]
