Planning for College
College Admissions officers have a difficult job these days as many applicants have 4.0+ GPAs, high SAT scores and AP course credits in multiple subjects. They seek more unique applicants and must determine whether a student is ready to thrive academically away from home. Students who have successfully navigated the Woolman Semester demonstrate both.
"The Woolman Semester offers an excellent environment for fostering the voices of students who would let their lives speak; a superb preparation for future studies. Earlham College is fortunate to have several Woolman students on our campus today who are letting their voices be heard, enriching our community and engaging in our changing world."
~Marie Cope-Nicholson, Associate Director of Admission, Earlham College, Richmond, IN
