What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

"Please obtain population data on students who are military scholarship recipients, notably HPSP candidates. I found out after speaking with several students that there are roughly 50 HPSP students in their class of about 600, which is staggeringly high in comparison to other programs that may have a handful or two of HPSP students. That sense of community in this niche area of interest is extremely attractive to people like myself." Report Response
