anyone????????????????

I don't know but I'll give you a range. My two kids applied. The one who was rejected had a 3.0 GPA great activities, etc and 1050 on SATs. The other who was admitted to the honors college had 3.9 GPA and 1340 on SAT

I was accepted Early Action with these stats:

ACT: 27
SAT: 1180/2400
Rank: Top 40% out of 700
Minnesota (I mean, come on...I go to a large, suburban high school, and only 1 person, a kid for that matter, knew about the school...and only because they made a run in the NCAA tourney a couple years back.)

I think it definitely helped that I showed early interest, not only by applying early, but by contacting several admissions counselors (my state one and also the one who deals with recruited athletes, although I wasn't even a recruited walk-on

I emailed with my state admissions counselor probably over 15 times throughout the late summer and early fall.

Just to note: it is slightly easier to get in as an in-state-applicant than out of state.

Good Luck!

Sportzajent, so glad to see your stats. My daughter has same SATs and top 10 percent, so her chances look good. C of C is her first. She has emailed the admisions rep but has not heard back yet. We are going to open house next week. Have you visited? She has been in contact with head of Hillel, who was really nice and helpful.

sportzajent · 03-08-2007, 05:13 PM

I have not visited yet, but will be visiting for the Open House. The Hillel has been great. I also have been in contact with a person from the Hillel, Mary Karesh, and she even sent me a shirt after I was accepted which I thought was extremely nice. I didn't sign up for the Hillel weekend, but will probably check out the friday night festivities, and perhaps the brunch on Sunday.

And as I look back on my previous post, I had something wrong: My M and CR combined were 1180, but my total was 1810/2400.

candace · 03-08-2007, 05:56 PM

Okay, yes, her SATs are about the same with all three parts as well. My daughter does not want to participate in Hillel next weekend because she is a junior. But she will do an overnight with Hillel next year if she is accepted.

do you think i could get in???

im a junior who lives in CT

i have 1850 SAT's
3.1 unweighted...2.7 weighted (i go to a really good public high school in CT so that will help a little...)

solid extra currics
id prob apply early

Jrbrown2oo8 · 03-18-2007, 11:54 PM

how is weighted lower?

SAT696969 · 03-24-2007, 11:17 PM

because the overall includes electives (easy A's) whereas my weighted is strictly academic core classes.

Jrbrown2oo8 · 03-26-2007, 11:49 AM

im no expert, but I would def say bring those grades up.
