The faculties recognize the curriculum and grading insurance policies in any respect prime colleges, and take it into account, that is one cause why they appear at unweighted grades, then be aware the quantity of Honors/AP/IB categories, and the AP/IB examination rankings. (An A in an AP elegance, however a a million or two at the examination, suggests it wasn't as rigorous because it used to be meant to be.) Unfortunately, essentially the most rigorous colleges relatively do not get the respect they deserve, however that is simply the way in which it's. (My son attends a individual college that's within the maximum organization for Ivy rating, dh participates within the admissions procedure for his Ivy alma mater, so we know the way it really works, however my son nonetheless he has to make all A's in his very rigorous categories to get right into a best institution.) My son's individual college additionally does not rank, as many do not on this subject. Your SAT and ACT rankings are just a little low* for the schools you're in view that, besides LMU and Chapman, however you will have to be ready to elevate them prime ample with learning (perhaps two hundred - three hundred SAT facets when you relatively paintings at it). (*Unless you deliver whatever wow to the institution you have not acknowledged, variety they want, best ranked athlete, important awards, and so on.) Pomona is well-nigh regarded a west coast Ivy (avg approved freshman SAT 2200+), very aggressive (thirteen% admit price), and children I recognize have selected it over the Ivies. Claremont McKenna is a step down, nonetheless an powerful institution, aggressive for admissions (17%), and you'll be able to take categories on the different Claremont Colleges, adding Pomona. Pitzer (additionally a Claremont College), is aggressive for admission (sixteen%), however makes use of a extra holistic system, if you're within the best 10% of your elegance, or have an unweighted GPA of three.five+, you do not ought to publish your SAT rankings. Accepted freshman natural GPA used to be three.nine, and for many who submitted their SAT rankings (so much did not), the maths and verbal quantities totaled approximately 1340. Scripps, a ladies's institution, admits approximately 36% of candidates, natural SAT ranking approximately 2050. Since it is at the Claremont College campus with 6 different small co-ed faculties, there are lots of men round. USC is truthfully extra aggressive for admissions than UCLA, it is all the way down to 18% reputation price, UCLA is approximately 22%, the approved freshman natural SAT rankings are one hundred thirty+ facets greater than UCLA's (and Berkeley's). Everyone applies to UCLA, while USC has an overly prime percent of candidates from best public and individual colleges, a extra aggressive pool, approximately forty% of the pupils went to individual prime college. Admission at UCLA generally is a crapshoot, even though they've began admitting extra best pupils, as their repute suffered. Non-resident pupils pay $23,000+ a 12 months greater than resident pupils, for all four years, so it is truthfully much less aggressive to be admitted if you are a non-resident. Check the a to g necessities at the UC internet site to look when you've taken the right publications, and ask your institution counselor to determine your UC GPA, it is exceptional from so much faculties (grades 10 and eleven, rigor of twelfth), and entails weighting. LMU is a well option for many who do not relatively have the stats to make it into different neighborhood faculties, as is Chapman. Kids I recognize at those faculties relatively like them. My son reveals Chapman too vanilla for his style, however stated it had an overly spectacular campus and humanities/movie systems. Admit price for each faculties is round 50%, besides for the movie systems, which might be most likely now 10%. Pepperdine is a most likely regarded just a little extra devout than Chapman and LMU, nevertheless it relatively does not look to have a terrible outcome at the to not soso devout pupils I recognize there, those who find themselves very devout look to remark on it extra, perhaps then it is type of a aggressive factor amongst the ones pupils. They have a lovely campus, and a satisfactory research overseas software. About 50% of undergrads perform research overseas. Average approved freshman GPA approximately three.seventy five, SAT approximately 1925. Because you are no longer a CA resident pupil, your price of attendance at UCLA might be almost the individual faculties' COA, and monetary help programs could also be extra beneficiant on the individual faculties, follow and notice. You could additionally don't forget UCSB, as it's kind of less complicated to be approved to, and it is a satisfactory institution in a lovely position, approximately a two hour force in low site visitors from LA. It relatively is not the occasion campus a few make it out to be, that is a unique organization of pupils. (A relative works at UCSB, and a different is SBPD.) Avg admit freshman SAT - approximately 1900, UC GPA four.zero, ACT approximately 27. The price would be the identical as UCLA. Good success along with your institution excursion! Look on the faculties on-line first, signal up for emails/mail, so that you get an concept of what you wish to look and ask questions approximately. Also, if they've any data classes for your town, it is a well concept to wait them, they have got relatively helped my son slim down his record of who had been going to talk over with this summer season at the east coast. Good success!
