<p>Does Alumni Relations At The University Of Rochester Play A Heavy Role In The Selection Process? Im Asking Because My Mother Went There.</p>
<p>They do ask if your parents have gone to U of R.</p>
<p>There’s even a special scholarship for you. . . .</p>
<p>Meliora Scholarship
Invested in children of University of Rochester alumni with academic promise. Award amounts will vary.</p>
<p>(<a href=“http://www.rochester.edu/admissions/financial/merit.html[/url]”>http://www.rochester.edu/admissions/financial/merit.html</a>)</p>
<p>Also at orientation, they have something special for kids of alumni</p>
<p>does the U of R place heavy emphasis on SAT scores?</p>
<p>My package is spectacular besides those, chances?</p>
<p>I see that your SAT scores are only 1200 and that might definately hurt you…
Admissions this year have become increasingly more selective (as about half their class supposively has already been admitted ED) so they are only selecting the best of the best. But I think you might have a chance being that you have a parent who went there…</p>
