As an incoming freshman , I can say that I truely think that smith looks at an applicants as a whole. I had a pretty low gpa compared to a lot of the other applicant (a 3.33!), and I don’t think my essay was anything outstanding. But I did show a lot of interest, got decent SAT scores (2070), and i was active in alot of different actives. It’s good if you show interest in a school. An interview and stay over would be great if possible. Also, if smith is your first choice, I would highly recommend applying early decision because the chances of getting in is much higher. Another aspect that I really think helped me get in is by getting in contact with the soccer coach. Through out the whole process, he was very helpful and he was able to write a recommendation for me. If you play any sports or are interested in music, I would hightly suggest getting in contact with a coach or music teacher because you want to get on there radar as much as possible. Other than that, keep up your grades, try to show interest and active participation in different activies.
