<p>wow...its much higher than i thought...</p>

<p>Stats required seem to be inching up each year,</p>

8

<p>That is a lot higher than I thought</p>

<p>College Data site info is just the average of the kids who input data on that site. This is by and large a self selecting pool.</p>

<p>I think average SATs last year were more in the 1300 range.</p>

10

<p>When I interviewed I was told not to submit my SAT scores unless the first two sections were at least a 1300 because it might be detrimental.</p>

11

<p>USNews online reports HC's 50% mid-range of 1210-1380.</p>

12

<p>I've heard that since the school fields 12 men's teams and 13 women's teams in division 1 and the enrollment is only 2700 that about 25% of the student body are varsity athletes: The</a> home of Holy Cross Athletics
I assume that some of the football recruits and basketball scholarships weigh down the overall averages.</p>

<p>CollegeData also has admissions stats reported by the school:

<p>Unfortunately, the shcool didn't report GPA information, but it does show freshmen SAT averages, middle 50%, and % in each 100-point range.</p>
