Qualified Students Can Still Get
Into A College Or University
Greensboro, N. C. "A
qualified student still can get
into a college or university,"
said Alien E. Kivett, director
of admissions at Greensbcrc
College. Kivett said that wher
people look below the sur
_ face, the so-called shortage of
space in college is net a?
critical as it might appear. "In
many cases," he emphasized,
"students must be willing to
accept a school other thar
their original choice."
Greensboro College, in a re
cent report by the Associat
ed Press, was named as the
only exception in North Ca
rolina to the crowded situa
tion. Kivett told the wire ser
vice, when asked, that GC
has 40 spaces for male stud
ents. During the two days af
, ter the article appeared, he
received queries from more
than 40 interested young men.
"A few of these," he said,
"may qualify for admission
to GC."
At Greensboro the admiss
ions committee places weight
on the predicted grade point
average for entering freshmen
This average indicates the
probable level of academic a
chievement and is based on
College Entrance Examina
tion Board (CEEB) test scores
g'ven and on the student's
high school academic record.
The high school record is the
most important, according tc
Kivett.
The only other college of
' relative size in North Caro
lina that uses the grade piont
average system is Davidson
College.
In using the grade point pre
dictions, GC is trying to match
the quality of male students
with that of incoming women
students. Of the female stud
ents entering this year, 53
per cent come from the top
20 per cent of their graduat
ing classes. Ten of these were
valedictorians. Against such
competition, the male student
whose grade point prediction
is not high enough cannot be
expected to survive academi
w "Qualifications for differ
ent schools vary," Kivett said,
"pie level of difficulty in the
•lpssroom also varies from
fqfrool to school," he added,
"'and since Greensboro College
places a primary emphasis on
\grod classroom teaching and
ligh standards, this mean:
hat it is one of the contri
rnting factors as far as our
)resent shortage is concerned.'
So far this year, GC has
eceived many more applica
ions than a year ago. Of a
- tal of some 700 freshmen and
ransfer applications. 368 were
ccepted and could be admit
ed if they chose to come to
Greensboro. Only 230 ac
ually will arrive on the GC
•ampus in September when
he college opens its fall se
mester. There were 168 male
ipplieaticns of which 39 per
•ent were accepted.
Most of the high school stu
ients who applied were mak
ng multiple applications to
;ee which colleges would ad-
Tlit them. This is a common
practice, said Kivett, and di
ectors cf admissions take it
into consideration when esti
mating probable enrollment.
'To compare the total number
)f applications at all colleges
with the number of men and
wemen finally admitted gives
i dark and altogether false
picture of the actual situa
ion," he said. "We feel sure,'
le added, "that the 138 who
vere accepted at GC but did
lot come will appear at other
schools in the fall."
The female enrollment at
jreensboro was filled early
n the spring and many still
ire cn the waiting list and
will be notified of their ac
ceptance should vacancies oc
sur before September.
Since becoming coeducati
onal in 1954, GC has steadily
increased its male enrollment.
Dean Elmer L. Puryear, in
appraising the situation said
that the men have taken pro
moninet positions of leadership
on the campus. "More import
ant," he said, "they are prov
ing themselves equal to the
standards that we are commit
ted to maintain in the class
room." He pointed to the fact
that GC is in the process of
raising the money to build
another classroom building
which will give the liberal
arts college the classroom
space and facilities it needs.
"We also have one of the fin
est faculties that can be em
ployed and are expanding it
steadily," he said.
