[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I applied for a Rhodes and a Marshall scholarship from a private college and there is definitely a group of students that get high-powered, 1:1 advising and mentoring. It's not broadly advertised or widely known, but absolutely happens. I had weekly meetings with the Provost to practice interview questions and the head of the honors program reviewed my course selections each semester. I met with members of the board of trustees and had frequent dinners at the university president's house. The school even hired an external consultant to advise me. From conversations with the other candidates (all from Ivies, unlike me), I understand that we all were prepped by our universities. In short, not everyone gets the same treatment.[/quote] Well, were you selected?[/quote]
