A total of 902 students have applied for admission to the Olin Class of 2025, nearly matching last year’s 910 applicants. This year’s pool includes slight increases in international students, and first-generation college students, at 15 percent and 14 percent respectively. In addition, domestic students of color matched last year’s record high of 42 percent of the applicant pool.
Given the constraints on traditional recruitment efforts due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this is a positive outcome for Olin. In addition, the customarily high academic quality of the College’s applicant pool remains excellent this year.
“I am so proud of the Admission and Financial Aid team, all of our student volunteers, and our two student social media interns, Walter Villa ’23 and Moisés Sabido García ’24, who pivoted to an all-virtual recruitment for the Class of 2025. It is their hard work that allowed Olin to maintain a fantastic and diverse pool of applicants.
