[i]Welcome Back, _____________

If you are receiving this letter, then congratulations! You are among one-hundred of thousands who returning to Meadows University, located in the beautiful Meadow View, Vermont. You have been accepted into this prestigious ivy league school for one of three reasons. 

The first reason might be due to the fact you are a legacy, the child of someone -- granted, one who had honors -- but one of our esteemed alumni. We accept ten legacies per year and if you are one of them, then consider that a high honor. The legacies are held to higher standards of following the rigid rules our university has for every student and faculty member.

The second reason is that, despite some questionable marks and activities you might have engaged in high school, you come from wealth and lots of it -- enough for us to overlook your less-than exemplary academic performances. Meadow University benefits from consistent donations and if you fall under this category of students, then your family has donated well.

And now, the third reason you might be receiving this letter: you are the perfect academic student. The sort of person this school needs. Do not be mistaken: you are not less than anyone else. You have worked hard and put in all of the hours made available to you. Your marks in your studies, time put for extracurricular, and voluntary work has finally paid off. Your “(enter gender here) with a plan” mentality has rewarded you with admission as one of our Scholarship Students.

Rejoice! You are now among a higher class. Meadow Academy welcomes you with open arms! May it provide you with a once in a lifetime experience that you’ll never forget.

Respectfully yours,

Hello  and welcome to the College roleplay, Meadow University that is set in Meadow View, Vermont. The university the majority of the roleplay will take place at an Ivy League school, which should tell you a lot about what sort of college it is. That being said, it is known for being a bit of a party school (even if the administration tries their best to silences those rumors). This roleplay will center around a medium to large group of third-years who are one of three types of students: legacies, those who are children of alumni, trustfunds, those who are children of Meadow’s donors, and scholarship students, those who earned their spot at MU through hard work and perseverance.

The roleplay will start at the start of the second semester of the first year, so this will give players/writers some time to entertain possible relations. Alternatively, they could also be attending late. Your choice.

There will be a maximum of ten students per category (ten legacies, ten trustfunds, and ten scholarships).

Meadow View is often regarded as a college town that caters itself specifically to the attention an Ivy League university brings. From the outside, it may appear to be small, especially when compared to other ivy league towns, but it is quite deceiving in that way. Being in Vermont, it is afforded the aesthetic of beautiful trees spread throughout its landscape, a few parks, a thriving marketplace and nightlife crowd. Additionally, there are various places of interest that students go when they have the time such as family homes and/or cabins in the mountains that surround Meadow View.

Meadow View houses several neighborhoods all ranging from middle class and upper middle class, a few schools for the locals, but for the most part, it [i]does[/i] lend itself to the students so that they have a quiet and peaceful environment for their studies. That and the university is so large, there’s hardly a reason to be in actual town ...unless they have to.

Being the cornerstone of Meadow View, the university that receives its namesake from the town is a beautiful campus surrounded by trees native to the green mountain state. It is a campus with a few buildings almost two hundred years old, which was around the time it was established. There have been expansions made over the years, of course, but of the buildings, the oldest that remain kept up to this day are the Administration Buildings and the Baptist Church. That and the marble fountain dead center of the campus, which has been known to be a regular relaxing spot for the students and faculty alike.

Since the beginning, as frequent presenting oneself in a respectable fashion has become tradition, so has the presence of sororities and fraternities. Of course, they’ve evolved with the times. They’ve gone from traditional groups of males and females living in peace to being an excuse for the young adults to let loose either before a major exam period or just to have a party for the sake of a party.

There are many places of interest around the campus from the dormitories, the library, respective fields dedicated to sports, a full gym, the Baptist Church for those with religious needs. For shopping needs, however, all one needs to do is go to Meadow View’s marketplace.

Meadow University’s staff is comprised of over fifty professors and personnel that cover the vast amount of subjects and topics that the classes make up. They all range from former students to professors who have been employed at MU for over three decades. Tradition is somewhat of a consistent presence at Meadow University. Despite what their ages or genders might be, they all answer to one woman: Emelia Beaumont. She rules the school with an iron fist and might appear nice, but her rule is authoritative and she is probably the worst enemy for young college student who likes to party.

[list][*]We are a character-driven roleplay, so expect for there to be a heavy emphasis on communication between your fellow players. This also means interactions with your characters in the IC. That will be just as important.
[*]At the least, writing expectations for this roleplay will be casual, so we expect at least two paragraphs per character.
[*]We will only allow three characters per player but you are in no way required to have all three from the get-go. We encourage that you only take on as many as you can handle.
[*]Though gender ratios won’t be our top priority, we do ask that if you see too many of one gender, consider making a character of the opposite gender so that the ratio isn’t [i]too[/i] out of whack.
[*]Consider making characters with flaws and complexities to them. Nobody wants to have a bunch of Christian Greys and Bella Swans running around.
[*]Machine-gun posting is fine if nobody else is posting, but if there are others wanting to post, please wait until two other writers (or two character posts) have been made before making another one.
[*]Collabs, while handy and encouraged, are not required. Use them as needed.
[*]Please communicate! if you need time off, tell the GMs! If you don't know what to do, talk to your fellow players! Communication is 9/10ths of the law of being a roleplayer. 
[*]As proof that you’ve read the rules, put what your favorite rom-com movie is in your character sheet(s), or any RomCom you’ve seen.
[*]And of course! Please -- oh please! -- have fun in the roleplay. There's no point in joining if you're not doing it for fun![/list][/indent][/indent][/color]
