Applying to Sacred Heart University, I interviewed with admissionsJul 20 2010Communications
Applying to Sacred Heart University, I interviewed with admissions twice. They really value who you are as a person, and not just what you seem like on paper. I also emphasized my community service work, which they also like to hear. They are becoming more selective with the students they let in, and obviously GPA matters.
