To get in this school I literally did nothingSep 12 2017Business - Management and Administration
To get in this school I literally did nothing. They said you should have an interview if you want to get it, but I didn't do that. They make it seem like it's a lot more prestigious then it actually is.

I had anMay 14 2014Biology
I had an interview and completed the common app. I also took a tour, attended an overstay program, and went to a dessert reception and met president Trible. He sent my name to the Dean of the College of Science and I was able to pick some classes I wanted to sit in as well as meet some professors. If you want to get in be sure to do an interview and attend as many admission related programs/events as possible. Also be a great student who is highly involved on your high school campus.

I applied to 5 colleges, including Mary Washington andDec 30 2002Biology
I applied to 5 colleges, including Mary Washington and SUNY and got into all of them. I chose CNU because of what it initially promised, PLP, and tuition. If one wants to go apply early and please visit the campus. Also interview students at CNU before deciding to attend. You should know the truth behind the CNU curtain.
