Subscribe to the LadderPure Gold
"The wind of freedom . . . " (from Stanford's motto) means many things to Stanford students. Exploring them has given Stanford a powerful admission communications program.
The latest news: a Gold Award for the viewbook in the 2009 CASE national Circle of Excellence competition. In March, the total recruitment package won Best in Show and Gold in Admission Marketing Report's 24th Annual Admissions Advertising Awards.
In 2009, the first year of the new communications program, the University
received 30,428 applications, up from 25,298 in 2008.
Entry into Stanford's class of 2013 broke all records for competitiveness,
with seats offered to 7.6 percent of applicants, down from 9.5 percent last
year.
