- Intended meaning of review scores:
- 4: Definitely Admit
- 3.5. Admit
- 3: Admissible
- 2.5 : Probably Admissible
- 2: Possibly Admissible (unlikely to be admitted – probably shouldn't be read by sector)
- 1: Probably Reject (not worth sending to sector)
- 0: Definite Reject (consider summary rejection by GAC chair)
(The parenthetical interpretation of the scores above is at the GAC level only. The scores at the sector level are purely for ranking candidates.)Reject
- As of 2011, we no longer fast-track students.
- Send to sector criterion:
- A folder will be sent to the sectors for additional reviews if it receives no more than one score of 2 or lower.
- Under-represented groups will be sent to the sector for additional reviews if it receives two scores of 2 or higher. If a woman or URM gets a 3+ as their first review, they will immediately be sent for faculty review.
- A tiebreaker application will only be sent to the 2nd round with a 3 or better as the tie review
- Reject criterion:
- GAC will usually not ask sector for review if it receives 2 or more scores of 2 or lower.
- "0 & 1 policing" will be done by GAC Chair to facilitate efficient review of applications. Chair Note: via Action pulldown, unassign GAC Reader via "Remove assignment". Beth officially marks later as "Probable Reject" via "Add tag"
