Admissions Difficulty

WHERE DO YOU FIT?

Based on an HONEST assessment of your strengths and weaknesses and what you want in a school…

          How do you get an honest assessment?

Match your G.P.A. and Standardized Test Scores (SAT I, SAT II and/or ACT) with the ranges for schools of interest.

Think about whether you want to be at the top, middle or bottom of the heap.

We strongly suggest that you apply to schools in three categories:

                             Safety (foundation)

                             Mid-Range (50-50)

                             Reach

If you do careful research and think reflectively about your options, a general rule of thumb is to apply to approximately six to eight schools.  There are exceptions…

For most students, there is no need to apply to a dozen schools.
