<p>Rolling admissions? When can I apply for the fall 2007 freshman year?
I am a junior right now and I want to know when I can apply. The earlier the better.</p>
<p>bump. When do they start taking applications for hotel school for next year?</p>
<p>another bump.</p>
<p>how many people apply to the hotel school each year? I heard they have an EA option?</p>
<p>Hotel Administration 782applicants 202acceptees 25.8%</p>
<p>thanks. what about the rolling admissions thing? what is that all about?</p>
<p>decisions are mailed out in spurts instead of all at the end of march</p>
<p>hey Arjun! are those numbers for this year's?
if so, how do you know?!</p>
<p>excel, mind telling me your stats? cuz im a highschool junior really interested in the hotel school also.</p>
<p>I am a high school junior too. I want to apply as well.</p>
<p>jostak, that's just sketchy. did you really think excel was going to tell you his stats? </p>
<p>anyway, i applied to the hotel school and still have not heard from them. this is very frustrating.</p>
<p>how hard is it to get in?</p>
<p>well, i think it depends. </p>
<p>if you are very much involved in the hospitality business (internships, personal business, parents' occupation, etc.), then you do not necessarily need the best numbers. </p>
<p>however, if you have never performed a task to prove your interest in the hospitality industry, then you should have excellent numbers and a convincing essay. </p>
<p>take a look at the official results thread. i believe there is a perfect source of comparison there: </p>
<p>1) High numbers + absolutely no experience
2) Low numbers + lots of relevant experience</p>
<p>so, if your dad owns a portion of the four seasons, then you should apply with confidence. if not, prepare for those sats? (*i have no idea. just speculations here.)</p>
<p>Are there any specific jobs or internships I should look into? There is a Gaylord resort near my house and I am think of asking for a job.</p>
<p>should i apply a job for a restaurant or a hotel, does it make any difference?
thx</p>
<p>my dad owns a portion of a motel? does that count..but he doesnt work there...</p>
<p>no it dodesn't make a difference between hotel and restaurant both are good. I would lean toward hotel though speaking as someone who has worked at both. I think you got more relevant experience and there are more things that you can talk about on your interview than in a restaurant. Waiters are a dime a dozen. Try to get whatever meaningful work experience you can. Try and call or email a few different places and see what kinds of opportunities they have. I emailed several hotels and was fortunate enough to get an internship that I designed that fit my schedule and my needs. I was able to get to know the general manager and managers of the various departments really well and could talk about all of the experiences that I had in housekeeping, the front desk, sales, maintance and just general stuff. Hope that helps and best of luck</p>
<p>which hotel did you get ur internship at?</p>
<p>I applied to the hotel school during last fall for ED and was accepted.</p>
<p>I would have to agree with the previous poster who suggested that experience in the hospitality field is a big plus. If you look inside the hotel school's information packet, it even tells you that it prefers if you have at least some experience in the hospitality field.</p>
<p>Now when I read this during spring of my junior year, I absolutely freaked because I had no experience whatsoever in this kind of work. If you are like me, don't panic, and take a deep breath. I was able to find a job at a local Japanese resturant and worked there for 4 months. I also had a job at Subway as a sandwich maker. I don't know how much that counted as service but the more qualifications the better.</p>
<p>So yeah, for those juniors who're already worrying about their college process, I hope my bit of information helped. If you have anymore questions, feel free to contact me via AIM, MSN or email. I'm actually not on AIM much these days so MSN and AIM are your best bet.</p>
