Recommend a Hamilton Applicant for Admission

While all letters of recommendation will be attached to applicants’ records, those that arrive by December 1 (for Early Decision 1 candidates), January 15 (for Early Decision 2 candidates), and February 1 (for Regular Decision) stand a better chance of being carefully considered by the admission committee.
