Any ivy league accepted people?
Got into Harvard, went to Cornell. I was active in the community- did community service and taught little kids in the summer; active in my school, president of Nat'l Honor society, on student council. Captain of the Track and Cross country teams (All state in cross country), lettered in both four years running. Sang in a choir extracurricularly, babysat as an after-school job (and provided a reference from this). 3.98GPA, 1490SAT , 34ACT. I had friends turned down with higher GPA's and SAT scores- this was because they did nothing extracurricularly, or their skills were focused in one area only-- all science, all athletics, all arts, etc... I was able to show arts, science, community service, work experience, and athletics, which helped a lot. Interviews are not always required, but they can help a lot!



Hope this helps!!!
Reply:I was accepted to 8 ivies. They looked at grades, extra-curricular activites (sports, drama, band, vocal), and community service. And the essay. And your test scores, whether SAT or ACT. However, I wrote a lousy essay, didn't do a lot of community service and I still got into an ivy.
Reply:I did not go to an Ivy, but I went to the University of Chicago which is in the top 25.



They cared about grades, test scores, extracurricular activities (not only did they want to see variety but also the fact I stuck with an activity that I cared about. I was very active in theater), types of classes I took (4 years math, English, Science, history, 3 years foreign language, art courses, etc), strength of classes (how many were AP or honors), work history (both for pay and volunteer, essays (how well did I write and reasons for wanting to go to their school), and interview (was I articulate).
Reply:If you really favour get a degree from a top 25/ivy league school think about going two years elsewear maybe a small local two year college if you miss the first time around. Out of high school I failed to get into most school however after two year I was able to get into UBC on a transfer. While it is not ivy league or 25 top (we're Canadain we are however canadain ivy) my program is valued higher then a number of ivy league school futher even if your coming from the state most Canadain school will be cost less. An America at UBC will on average pay less the one going to a state school the point being that pick a school upon wich program out want and don't rule anything out.
