Editor's notes
- Know which path you're on before you apply. Hit a 22 ACT or 1100 SAT and admission is guaranteed; fall short and you'll need a 2.7 GPA with a 19 ACT or 990 SAT, or the review route with a personal statement. A retake that moves you over a line can change your whole application.
- Apply before Dec. 1. Admission is rolling until July, but Dec. 1 is the scholarship priority date, and test scores must come straight from the testing agency, not through the Common App, so leave time for them to arrive.
