My son graduated from high school in June and JMU was his first choice but he did not get in. He had a 3.69, took honors courses, National Hon. Society, Beta Club, Boys State, Varsity sports, tons of community service. He even took a dual enrollment course through JMU (which he got 99 in) and all this - he still did not get in. Out of his class of 200, only 6 kids got in. We were told that there were 25,000 applications for 3,000 slots. Definitely have a backup plan since competition is getting so fierce.
