Parents
In case you missed it, the video from Tuesday’s parent chat is posted below.
Congratulations to all of you on the admission of your sons and daughters to Dartmouth’s Class of 2016!
We know that this is an exciting time for you as your son or daughter makes plans for next year and prepares to head off to college. We’re also sure that you have questions that you want answered before you’re fully prepared for the next steps!
Please join us at 8:00 PM (eastern) on Tuesday, April 3rd for a special edition of Dartmouth Direct Live!, where you can ask us questions about whatever is on your mind as you make plans for next year. No webcam needed. Sit back and watch or participate by asking us questions and we’ll do our best to answer them, Live!
[...] us for a special chat for parents this Tuesday evening at 8pm [...]
Great idea for chat and connecting with other parents. Garvin Maffett (Justin ’16)
My son was granted admission as an incoming freshman in the fall. I am unable to participate in the chat given the time difference. ( 6 hrs, we live in Hawaii ). Is there a way to listen to the chat after is it completed?
Mahalo ( thank you ),

Wonderful idea- will be there. Janet (Jill Dayneka)
We are from Hanoi, Vietnam and my daughter (Hoang Thi Tu Quyen) needs I-20 form from you to apply and obtain F-1 Visa from US Embassy here. I just want to make sure that this I-20 form will reach us safely and if possibly also in electronic format, to avoid any risk of the post service (we experienced troubles in the past). And also we will be away most likely between June 9 – 24, 2012.
So could you arrange so as the I-20 form will arrive either before or after our absence?
Thank you.

Sorry,I can’t be on this live chat. It will be 8am in the morning in Singapore.My daughter is an international student. When can we expect to receive the I-20?
Thank you

Our Daughter Nkenna is looking forward to joining you in August, what a great idea, we’ll try and join in.
I am hoping that the chat provides further insight into Dartmouth. We are deciding between another Ivy so this may help.
UChicago (where my son has also been accepted) and Columbia apparently have and proudly boast about their strong core curriculum. What is Dartmouth’s equivalent?
looking forward to this chat session
This is a great idea, what kind of help do you offer students who might be in the middle of the pack or stumble?
thank you for this chat. How do Dartmouth teachers approach to teaching, traditional(more lecture style)? theory based(more about exploring how and why things happened instead of what happened?) thank you.
Thanks for this Q&A. Does Dartmouth have an open curriculum?
My daughter cannot attend the planned weekend but would like to arrange a visit next week. How can she make the arrangements?
When will admitted students be tested for course placements?
what % of male/females participate in frat/sorority? thank you!
What are the security measures in place to protect female students on campus?
We’d like to visit Dartmouth but cannot attend the April 19-21 program.
Can you accommodate a visit for an admitted 2016 student on an alternate day (in particular for us, on Saturday April 14)?
Thanks.

HOW MANY DAYS DO THEY ALLOW FAMILY TO HELP WITH MOVE IN
Can a student select his/her roommate? And if so, what is the process of initiating this process?
You have a vibrant arts center how much do the students support the arts at dartmouth
Do the undergrad students get to do research in engineering .. in which year
What would you say to a student who does not have an idea of what he or she wants to study. to the student, do you find that most of your peers were focused when they came to campus
What’s the biggest surprise you experienced as a student or parent during 1st year? Garvin
Why are my questions not being answered? First one was posted @ 8;08.
Thanks for the opportunity

Can you talk about the Hop Dance Ensemble and how often do they perform and do they travel?
We and our daughter is excited to join the college and no more about Darthmouth. We live in Kathmandu, Nepal but daughter is currently doing IB in US
Will the answers to these questions be posted where all can see the anwers? I would have asnsked some of the same questions.
I was unable to attend the live chat, but I have read through all the questions. Will you be able to make the answers available to me and the other parents who could not get involved?
