Get at least a 25 on yourJan 18 2005Engineering Department
Get at least a 25 on your ACT and have at least a 3.65 and you should be good to go - I'd suggest higher as it is beginning to get much harder to be accepted. Don't blow off your essays either, they actually read those things.

I don't know anyone who didn't get in, but then again, all the people I know had at least a 3.2 in high school, but some had bad test scores (which are irrelivant anyways) Not elite, but I think it is better that way
ACT: 27 Female
My GPA in high school wasn't too great, butMar 09 2004Biology
My GPA in high school wasn't too great, but I smoked the ACT. I had a lot of friends who had decent GPA's but didn't do well on their ACT's and didn't get accepted. It seems like it gets more competitive every year.
