[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Board members are more influential that staff/faculty. And yes, letters from Board members can help a qualified applicant.[/quote] This is how I got in. My mom was a nurse in a nursing home. I would often come with her to work on the weekends and read or chat with the residents. I got to know family members that visited. It was obvious that I was in HS so a logical question often became where are you thinking of attending or what do you want to study. A son would often come visit his father and we would chat about college options. One day I told him that I was done--all apps were submitted. He told my mom that he was on the board and he would make a phone call. [/quote]
