It's like Harvard and Yale...You have to be in the top of your class, excellent ACT/SAT scores, 4.0 GPA (or around there 3.8-3.9), and many extracirricular activities. Oh and take as many honors/AP courses as your school offers because they need to see those on your transcript.

A+ average, lots of community service or other activity AND the ability to write well

3.5-4.0 but straight As will probably be your best bet
