Dartmouth's annual Native Fly-In program provides talented high school seniors with an unparalleled opportunity to gain firsthand knowledge of the College's academic resources, student services and admission & financial aid criteria. Program participants enjoy extensive interaction with members of the Dartmouth Native community along with a cross section of college students, faculty and staff through a mix of information sessions, academic presentations and social events. Complimentary meals and on-campus housing are included for Fly-In guests with round trip transportation assistance.

As demand for this program often exceeds our capacity to accommodate student interest, we ask those who are not selected to not consider our decision as an indicator of their undergraduate admission prospects at Dartmouth College. The College offers a similar program in the spring for some students who have been admitted to Dartmouth and who have not previously visited the campus.
Please take advantage of this potential opportunity to see what Dartmouth has to offer you. If you have further questions, please call us at 1-800-860-1294, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST or email Admissions.Perspectives@Dartmouth.EDU .
Unfortunately Dartmouth's Fly-In Program is meant to serve only those students with high school senior status in the 2007-2008 school year. If you will be a high school junior or younger in 2007-2008, we would like to encourage you to submit your name and address to our mailing database so we can send you a Fly-In application when you are eligible.
The 2007 Fly-In will take place from Sunday, October 14th, 2007 to Wednesday, October 17th, 2007.
If you haven't already received an application in the mail, you can download the application in PDF form here. You can also download the instruction sheet here.
Last year Dartmouth received approximately 300 applications from Native students across the country. We expect similar, if not higher numbers this year.
Typically we accept approximately 35 students for the Fly-In Program.
Dartmouth College will cover the complete cost of your airfare and on-campus meals and lodging. Typically the only cost is that of transportation to your nearest airport.
The Dartmouth College Admissions Office will notify applicants of decisions during the week of September 17th.
Please feel free to call the Dartmouth Admissions Office at 1-800-860-1294, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST.
