⚠️ Flags for Review:
-
Essay 1 shows limited personal voice (generic college prep phrasing); compare to writing sample
-
Recommendation from counselor received late (2 days); timeline note for committee
-
📊 Quantitative Profile: Competitive (top 12% of applicant pool) Qualitative Profile: Moderate (strong essays, limited demonstrated leadership)
✓ Triage Recommendation: Standard committee review (not expedited, but file-complete)

Missing: Final transcript (institution notified; expected by deadline)
-
Test scores submitted but Score Choice option not indicated per policy
-
🚩 Critical Issues:
-
GPA 2.91 below stated 3.0 minimum; requires committee exception vote
-
Scholarship application filed but conditional on final transcript
-
📊 Triage Recommendation: Hold pending receipt of final transcript; flag for exception review
