I do not understand how an SAT score of 1800 and a good GPA and Eagle Scout does not get you into the main campus. From what I have read regarding UCONN admissions these scores and grades are within the middle 50 percentile of admission, maybe on the lower side of the range but I would think eagle scout would put you over. Did you specify a major that may have required even better SAT’s and GPA? I have read and heard of students getting into UCONN main campus with close but lower GPA and SAT’s. Does anyone know how UCONN weights the applications ? GPA higest, SAT next, Essay next ….?
