I do know that in California, many of the state colleges have an explicit formula which is kind of interesting… e.g. multiply one’s GPA by 800, add to that the sum of the 2 parts of the SAT ( or ACT )…if the total is over a certain amount, the applicants gains acceptance. Perhaps the large East coast universities have some type of “unofficial” formula.
