    • Kerri Cahoy Rookie of the Year Award (Jackie Robinson award in MLB)
    • 523 Complete Folders out of 545 started. 523 compares to 466 last year.
      • x Probably Reject

      • z need GAC to finish reviews (zz Folders GAC needs to read, concentrated in yy, BLW to twist arms)
    • We are a little behind and should just finish
  • Review rejected minority/female candidates
    • BLW to project list of URM and Female and discuss real time
    •  
  • Open house : Open house is March 15th
    • Improved format from last year (thanks Beth!) to be continued
    • Faculty participation
    • Ask Karen to ask Jaime to encourage this, other ideas?
    • Set expectations in acceptance letter (was this done last year as planned?) - make appointments with individual faculty
    • Beth to tell us how travel reimbursement works for students
  • Sector meetings being scheduled (any update?)
    • Actions?
  • USAF academy rankings should be here (BLW requested)
    •  
  • Need to start collecting yield data.
    • Action: Karen to send out email to faculty requesting yield data early next week.
  • Any comments on the process, suggested changes for the future? 
    • BLW observation.  Our increased volume of applicants, but non-volume-based criteria for sending to Sectors, may be sending too many low-quality applicants to the faculty. 
      • Our cutoff for sending to Sector might be adjusted upward or redefined given applicant volume vs. Admission Need.  
      • Last year 104 were Admitted, yet 271 were sent to Faculty to read
      • As of 1/13/13, we have 202 Folders done by GAC with 3+ average score, and 142 between 2 and 3.  Numbers not final but one might think that all our Admits (assuming similar to last year) could come from 3+ bucket
      • This would essentially pull Needed student volume (from faculty survey) forward in the Admissions process
      • Discuss?
  • No labels
