Merit is tough at Lehigh. My S received no merit with a 36 ACT, NMF, 3.9/4.3 GPA, 12 APs, AP Scholar of Distinction (ultimately National AP Scholar), 800 and 790 SAT Subject tests, All-State athlete, excellent science extracurriculars. He also showed interest by visiting and interviewing, and could have walked-on to athletic team. There was nothing more he could have done.

S really liked Lehigh, but without merit it was a no-go.
