Berea college

Nice to meet you Heriniaina

Nice to know you guys

I am helping a young man complete the application for Berea. We found that the initial application is very simple - no place for essays. After you submit it, does Berea ask for essays, teacher recs, transcripts, etc?

I guess he’s a domestic applicant. I’m not familiar with the domestic application process but I am confident that essay and recommendation letters are required. If you have any struggle providing any of these information, you should contact the school for more assistance; they typically respond within a day or two.

One thing I can say is that essays plays a pretty good role during the decision making. The following is stated on the international application packet, I guess the case is similar with domestic applicants: “Because the content of the essay is an important part of evaluating a student for admission, it is to your advantage to add detail.”

I hope this helps and best of luck with his application.

Are fewer international students applying this year due to Covid?

Hey guys, did anyone request for an alternative method of submission?

@Nw2this …I guess so cos this thread isn’t really active.

It may be fewer than the previous years, but it seems to still be considerably high. When I contacted the admission team to ask then about when I would receive the email notification of receipt, they stated that “due to the high volume of application received near the deadline” the email would be take time to be sent.

The fact is that forums about BC have always been less active for international applicants. For example last year there were about 600 international applicants but only 10 or so were active on the forum.
