How Hurtful is a 31 ACT for an Ivy

Well, it’s low for Ivies and if SAT is low too then it’s going to hurt your odds, unless you are eligible for a special quota like URM, First Generation, legacy, rural residency, athletics, donor, faculty kid etc

@CupCakeMuffins, I hope I am correct in assuming you didn’t mean the term “special quota” in your post. Of course several of those designations may be hooks or tips, but none AFAIK are quotas.

Let’s not get bogged down in semantics. Athletes are a fixed number by university, as an example, so call it whatever you want.
