what does it take to get in early?

<p>what does it take to get in early decision to lehigh gpa-wise, scores? I heard your chances are signficantly better.</p>

<p>anyone? ten characters</p>

<p>Show an interest in the school. Visit, make contacts within the admissions office. Have good grades, gpa, scores etc… and that’s a start.</p>

<p>i think the major thing with lehigh is fit and your show of interest. that isn’t to say they don’t look at gpa/sat’s/recs/etc. and with early they know its your top choice…i just know from kids at my school who don’t get the best grades but knew lehigh was for them made it a point to show this and they’re going next year. so best of luck!</p>

<p>As others have said, Lehigh likes a strong display of interest – and not just by applying early. It also looks for solid ECs that show leadership and a deep knowledge/commitment to one or more areas.</p>

<p>While ED may increase one’s chances somewhat for admission, doesn’t it usually decrease one’s chances of getting some merit scholarship ?</p>
