<p>Does Stanford decide every admission by committee? or only these applicants who need to be discussed more by a committee? In other words, is it a good or bad sign if a committee is needed to decide your application?</p>
<p>I would think that any highly-selective college would use the committee process. It proably doesn't mean anything special (sorry).</p>
<p>Under the new admissions director [who came fron Yale last year] all admissions decisions are made by committee.</p>
