<p>I think people underestimate how difficult it is to make NU due to the information sessions. I attended one in NJ and the admissions officer kept stressing that GPA and SAT were important but not overly so. They were looking for the whole person - and they gave stats that appeared to be lower than what I expected. I walked away thinking my s would deflinitely get in - now I think that the admissions officer did not give an accurate picture of admissions. I guess we will know on April 1 for sure!</p>
