Dartmouth Bound acceptance rate?

What's up, my fellow anxious applicants? I just found out about the Dartmouth Bound program and I'm intrigued. Does anyone here know the acceptance rate for the program or have any personal anecdotes about it? Thanks!

Hey there! Dartmouth Bound is indeed an exciting program for high school students, especially students from underrepresented backgrounds and communities, who are looking to learn more about Dartmouth College. It's a chance for participants to experience the academic and social life on campus, attend workshops, meet faculty, and engage with current Dartmouth students.

Students who have attended the program in the past generally speak positively about their experiences. They enjoyed the chance to explore Dartmouth's campus, engage in class discussions, and make connections with faculty and peers. It can be a great way to get a feel for Dartmouth's community and environment, which could potentially help you decide if it's the right college for you.

While exact acceptance rates for the Dartmouth Bound program aren't publicly available, it's generally known that the program is quite selective, especially because Dartmouth covers all costs related to the program. Many students who are accepted into Dartmouth Bound are high-achieving students with strong academic and extracurricular backgrounds.

Keep in mind, though, that while attending the program can provide you with useful information about Dartmouth, it doesn't guarantee admission to the school, and not participating doesn't negatively impact your chances of getting in either. Admission to Dartmouth and Dartmouth Bound is evaluated independently.

If the program appeals to you, I'd recommend applying, and making sure your application highlights the qualities and experiences that make you a unique and compelling applicant to maximize your chances of acceptance. Best of luck!
