In the semi-final round of New Scholar Selection, volunteers gather to evaluate written responses, transcripts, and video submissions from high school seniors applying to the Whole Person College Program.
 

Each volunteer placed on a team will individually read, watch, and score the same applications and videos. In February, the team will come together for a one-hour discussion to compare notes and recommend the top applicants to progress to the final round.
 

The total time commitment for application review and the team meeting is approximately 7 hours.
