[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does Posse work?  Do you apply to the six schools and see which one takes you or does the Posse Foundation place you in one of them?

This was my kid's experience with DC Posse. 
His high school nominated 10 students. 
Other participating schools also nominated  students. They assign you to a round 1 session.

Round 1:  DC was in a room with about 100 kids. They answered an essay online from Posse computers. Then they did group activities and were observed. Out of the 100, 30 were selected to Round. 2

Round 2: 20- minute individual interviews. As part of the interview, DC answered  a form online, selecting his top 5 schools out of the 10 participating colleges from DC Posse and why he liked each of those schools. They were W&M, UVA, Lafayette.. and I can't remember the other 2.

Posse will match you with a school on your list. You will commit to.apply to that school ED if you are selected as a finalist.

Round 3: Finalists will have longer, panel interviews with the colleges they got matched with. One of the kids from his high school got selected for UVA. Full scholarship.

Round 3
