I'm just curious as to what types of students are generally being admitted to Case, as they seem to have a unique application/admission rate
SAT: 2000 (710 M, 620 CR, 670 W)
GPA: 3.7(UW) 4.7(W)
Rank: Not sure but i think really bad
4 years of soccer(3 Varsity) and 4 years of wrestling
NHS
maryland distinguished alumni
a couple random clubs
volunteer at hospital
SAT: 2090 (720 M, 700 CR, 670 W)
ACT: 34
GPA: 4.0 UW, 4.125 W
Rank: 10/822
ECs: Science Research in Genetics lab at Case, Equinox Summer Program @ Case (genetics class), NHS, Future Leaders, 4-H, National Merit Finalist, Mini Medical School, Academic awards
I was fairly disappointed with Case's scholarship offer. It's not going to cost me that much more to go to my first choice school (Vanderbilt).

SAT: 1850 (610cr, 630w, 610m) first time/1870 (670cr, 620w, 580m)

Rank: don't know exact, but 20%
ECs: a few things at church, 2 years of JV lacrosse, few meaningless clubs,
Other stats: AP Chem (5), AP US Hist (4), taking AP Physics, AP Calc BC, AP English, and AP Spanish
Extracirriculars: Speech & Debate (3 years, varsity+ officer, state-level debate, national alternate); NHS (3 years, secretary, director of multiple fundraisers); Academic Team (4 years, varsity, conference champs); Band, Marching Band, Clarinet (4 years, went to Midwest Clinic, Semis at Grand Nationals, state contest every year)
Yeah, Case's Merit Scholarships are very specific down to SAT scores and class rank, etc. I think the reason I didn't get the one I expected to get because of my SAT scores—not bad, by any means, just not outstanding.
I thought they would, being in the Midwest, but with my ACT score, I don't know what would have prevented me from getting the highest merit scholarship. Compared to my friends who did get that scholarship, my ACT was either the same or even higher, but my SAT scores were about 100-200 pts down =/
You win some, you lose some. But I basically have full tuition to case, or close to it.
