[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trinity for K. [/quote]

I was actually under the impression that Trinity has become more fairer over the past years?

Is it still elite in this sense?[/quote]

Not sure what you mean. However in the old days, two things stuck out:

(1) Unlike most (all?) of the other privates, they did not accept applications from everyone who submitted one on time. They claimed that they treated applications on a first-come-first-served basis, but I doubt that was the case. Plenty of people who dropped of their forms (it was all on paper then) on the first day received their check back in the mail. If you didn't get the right colored card (can't recall if it was blue or green) with your response, you didn't get considered.

(2) The open house had no sign-in sheet. They just did not care who showed up, mostly because it was for show and all of the demonstrated interest in the world was not going to change who they were and were not accepting.

At least Dalton pretended to consider all of their applications, even if the basement interview with someone who was not Babby was pretty much an indication that you were SOL.[/quote]
