We invite about 225-250 applicants to participate in Candidates’ Weekends. This is an opportunity for both Olin to learn more about applicants, and for applicants to learn more about the Olin community, curriculum and culture. All applicants who reach the second phase of the process are required to participate in Candidates’ Weekends, as the information gleaned provides the basis for final admission decisions. Due to concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, Instead of having multiple Candidates' Weekends this year, we'll be going virtual with "Candidates' Week", taking place February 26, 2021 through March 7, 2021. The purpose and vibe of the programs during Candidates' Week, however, will remain true to the Olin spirit of creativity and collaboration. The 2021 Candidates’ Week experience will be held in a virtual space. You’ll meet and hear from faculty, interact with current students and alumni, experience aspects of student life, and celebrate with the community as Olin comes together for these special events. There will be both evaluative components of the program, such as an interview, as well as plenty of opportunities for Candidates to engage with our community and learn more about Olin. After the program, the Admission Committee meets again and makes the final admission decisions. Candidates are notified of their decision by late March.
