<p>Hey all,</p>
<p>I applied and was admitted RD to UPS, but was wondering if anyone has heard anything regarding the Business Leadership or Honors Programs. I applied to the BLP, and was really riding on whether I was accepted to that before making a decision....but there was no mention of it in my acceptance packet or via any other communication with Puget Sound.</p>
<p>Has anyone received contact regarding the special programs, or do you think they'll be notifying around April 1st?</p>
<p>Any input would be appreciated:) Thanks!</p>
<p>Nevermind. hahah. Got my letter today; accepted.</p>
<p>Whew! I thought for a second I might have to choose a different school lol. Well, good luck to everyone else! (I live in Wa state, so other applicants might not receive letters till later?)</p>
<p>Hi mjh. Just returned from visiting UPS with my son, who is a HS junior. He was very interested in the Business Leadership Program. If you wouldn’t mind, could you post your stats, so we can get some idea of what it takes to get accepted to that program? Thanks – and congratulations!</p>
<p>Oh, thanks:) hahah. I don’t know if it’s really that competitive, I’m sure your son will have a good chance. The program has room for about 25 students each year, and they probably accept 40 or so, knowing that some won’t choose to attend UPS. I can’t imagine more than maybe 100 kids apply.</p>
<p>But still, here were my stats:</p>
<p>3.58 GPA uw / 3.8 GPA w
2030 SAT (660cr, 640m, 730w)
30 ACT
Lots of extracurriculars, including FBLA and DECA (business/marketing clubs), leadership experience, etc.</p>
<p>Again, I’m sure it’s not too competitive…afterall, UPS itself has about a 65% acceptance rate! Regardless, good luck to your son! :)</p>
<p>Thanks very much for the info - my son will give it a try!</p>
