Bucknell University Early Decision for Fall 2024 Admission

This is the official thread for those applying ED to Bucknell University.

List your unweighted GPA, any SAT /ACT scores, and ECs. What majors are you going into?
Ask your questions, the CC community is here to help!

3.64 UW school doesn’t do weighted, 8 AP’s, 31 ACT (35R, 35W, 29S, 26M), good extracurriculars connecting to business

Applying freeman college.

buddhist asian male from the west coast if that helps my case because I know there’s low diversity there and nobody from my area really goes to bucknell.

what are my chances ED1? should I submit ACT? does Bucknell superscore in case I take the test again to get my math score higher? Please let me know because I really want to go to Bucknell. Also might do ROTC and will indicate that on application.

I applied ED to the Freeman college as a markets, innovation, and design major.
I had a 3.46 gpa overall. Freshman 3.1, Sophomore 3.5, Junior 3.75, and I sent my quarter 1 senior grades which was a 3.9 (hoping my upward trend helps me lol)
3 APs and 1 honors
I applied test optional
I think I had some decent ECs
-vp of model congress
-vp of community group
-NAHS, field hockey, DECA, art club, part time job
-I also run a pretty successful small business, which I wrote about in my supplemental essay
I go to a rigorous high school in Connecticut, and Bucknell is usually pretty popular (except this year only one other person ED, but 3 athletes also). Last year 7 kids from my high school went to Bucknell, and I know all the 3 people that ED last year got in so hoping I will too fingers crossed.
