What kind of GPA/Standardized test scores do you need to get into the honors college?

They are blind to standardized test scores. Avg wGPA is well over a 4.0. From talking to the other scholars in my class, SAT test scores ranged from almost a perfect score to 1800ish. It is very competitive to get in and can be hard to predict. thousands of applicants for 300 spots/freshmen class.

how can they not consider test scores?!

A student's ability to succeed academically cannot be 100% predicted by great standardized test scores.

edit- they must be doing something right too, the Schreyer Honors College is regarded as one of the top honors colleges in the country.

well it can't be %100 on test scores, but they do help to predict something. i'm just very surprised hey don't consider them at all
