Well then she must have an SAT above 2100, correct? Because I can tell you that my child had an SAT between 2000 and 2100 and a GPA UW of 3.67, and 4.3 weighted with between 7-10 AP courses completed and all 4’s and 5’s on the AP exams and named a National AP Scholar with Distinction and marvelous EC’s…and outstanding recommendations and so forth and was offered scholarships elsewhere…but not Fordham.

We were told the threshold is 2100 and they stick to that pretty closely. Mind you, we didnt apply early decision or early admission and we are not from the tri-state area, so perhaps they thought we would not come…and the ones my child know’s who DID get scholarships to Fordham all have SAT’s above 2200…in one case a perfect 2400, with GPA’s that are near perfect. So if your D got one with a GPA below 3.7, congrats…but I wonder what your hook is?
