<p>Does Dartmouth look at Freshman grades in their admissions process?</p>
<p>yes, although it would be to my advantage (hugely) if they didnt, the answer is still yes, they do look at them. stanford and princeton dont, unless you already knew that…</p>
<p>Knew about good ole’ Princeton and Stanford…disappointed to hear that about Dartmouth.</p>
<p>Yeah but if you’ve shown a real upward trend I think they take that into account. I got crappy grades freshman year and still got in.</p>
<p>yeah freshman year is definitely the least important year. colleges know it’s an adjustment period, so i would not worry about it.</p>
