[QUOTE="Techster, post: 208713, member: 360"] A lot of schools take the "holistic" approach to admissions where GPA and test scores are only considered just "part" of the acceptance process. Ivy League schools, and the a good majority of schools in that tier (like Stanford) have the same approach. What's telling is though they claim no "official" minimal admissions criteria, the profile of admitted students tells you that they actually DO have a "traditional" admissions process in terms of what they want in terms of GPA and test scores versus other acceptance models: Stanford: [URL]http://admission.stanford.edu/basics/selection/profile.html[/URL] Harvard: [URL]http://features.thecrimson.com/2013/frosh-survey/admissions.html[/URL] In terms of the academic profiles of SAs that Stanford signs, and I've pointed this out in another thread using several of their biggest signings and star SAs, they are not signing kids at the bottom of the academic barrel. So while the "official" stance is there's no minimal academic and test requirement, in practice, there actually is one. [/QUOTE]
