I think this application system could either work really well or totally screw things up, depending on what is actually in the application. Those of you who are saying what a horrible idea this is are assuming that they’re going to ask only about what skills the students have and whatnot. You haven’t seen this application so you really can’t make that assumption. Maybe they just want to make sure the people they let on the team will have the time to commit to the team and aren’t just joining for a free trip or another extracurricular for their college applications.
