<p>Congratulations to all the students who were admitted to Wooster as a member of the Class of 2013!</p>
<p>We have a fellow CCr who's daughter was admitted and will attend next year as a Neurology major, Rachacha. Please congratulate them :)</p>
<p>Go Scots!</p>

<p>Thanks Laura! I will be checking the board here often - Laura is such a great student resource! Parents of rising seniors - feel free to ask questions about the admissions process at Wooster, especially the scholarship programs (my D received a VERY generous College Scholar award). Everyone there is great!</p>
<p>I know of at least one other CCer who has a Class of 2013 member - any others out there feel free to join in, and congrats to all! August will be here before you know it!</p>
<p>Something I am curious about if Wooster stacks their merit awards. For instance, can a student receive a diversity scholarship on top of a merit scholarship?</p>
<p>susan,</p>
<p>that’s something you’d have to email/call the financial aid office about.</p>
<p>Laura,
You’re wonderful! I hope Wooster realizes what a very special ambassador you are for the school. My daughter, a rising senior, has had an unbelievably wonderful experience at Woo. I just returned from accompanying her on an eight-day trip to England, which Wooster helped subsidize (for her, not me!) through Copeland funding. She was researching her senior IS project, re: medieval pilgrimage from Winchester to Canterbury. Wooster may be the best, and most underrated college out there. My other daughter attends a far more “selective” school, which has not been nearly as enriching (yet) as Woo.</p>
<p>We will be visiting Wooster with S this summer. I’m only sorry our visit can’t be during the school year so we could see the Pipe Band!</p>
<p>Rachacha – do you mind if I ask what your D’s stats were that earned her the generous scholarship? </p>
<p>Laura, thanks for your input here – I have enjoyed reading your informative posts. I don’t know if this has been covered here previously, but do you have any info. concerning substance-free housing? Is it popular? Are there sub-free floors in a variety of dorms? Thanks!</p>
<p>Hi - just checking in and saw this new thread. I"m the other CC’er that Rachacha referred to in the post above. My son will be a freshman this fall at Woo. He also received a nice scholarship, not quite as nice as Rachacha’s d, but it helpful in the final decision. </p>
<p>He hopes to play tennis and play cello in the orchestra. He’s considering International Relations or History as a major. He requested Babcock (the international or cross cultural dorm) for his dorm but I’m wondering how difficult it is to get placed there as a freshman. </p>
<p>Hindoo, thanks for such a positive post about Wooster. What did your daughter major in? History? Her/your trip sounds wonderful.</p>
<p>My daughter is a rising junior at Wooster. She is a history major and is currently on a summer study program with Wooster in Sienna, Italy. She is having a wonderful trip. It is two class credits and is taught by one of the college’s history professors. Bengal Mom - Band camp starts mid-August and the pipers will be practicing. DD is one of the pipers :)</p>
<p>I am sorry we will miss them – we will be visiting in late July.</p>
