Caltech for International Students

<p>How's Caltech for students applying from other countries I mean those who aren't U.S. Citizens.</p>

<p>What are the minimum requirements??</p>

<p>I am still in 11th Grade in India and will be giving SAT in May and June!</p>

<p>Do I need to do something else.</p>

<p>What scores are required to join Caltech.</p>

<p>I am studious student, winning medals, honors, etc. at several national and international competitions.</p>

<p>I am interested in ding Aersospace Engineering!</p>

<p>Please Help!</p>

<p>Iam an Indian too.. And I can tell you this, there arent any minimum requirements as such, but you need to be really good in Math and Science, considering that Caltech is highly selective. If you have many medals and honours related to these subjects to your credit its certainly an advantage. But you also need to show who you really are. I mean, grades are definitely important but I think your involvement in other activities are equally important too... All the best!</p>

<p>Another Indian in the house! Nice to see you!</p>

<p>It's good that you're studious - grades are definitely what matter the most. However, you do need that involvement outside the classroom as well. Medals and awards - that too at the international level! - are great. But what are you primary extracurricular activities?</p>

<p>As for the scores, check this out: <a href="http://collegesearch.collegeboard.com/search/CollegeDetail.jsp?collegeId=4214&profileId=6%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://collegesearch.collegeboard.com/search/CollegeDetail.jsp?collegeId=4214&profileId=6&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Well thanks!</p>

<p>Competitions include science models, debates, olympiads, quiz competitions!</p>

<p>Recently I got a gold medal from the University Of South Wales, Australia in Computer and Mathematics for outstanding performance in Olympiads conducted by them.</p>

<p>Aman, you definitely have the awards part covered. Don't worry about that.</p>

<p>How involved are you in debating and quizzing?</p>

<p>well I am totally engrosed in debating and quizzes!</p>

<p>I made it to the final round of debate competition in Geofest(An international competition for school students) held at Lucknow in November.</p>

<p>My team also finished 5th in the Quiz competition out of 72 international & national teams.</p>

<p>Also I am one of the best debaters of my region, winning quizzes and debates at school and district level is no hard work for me!</p>

<p>Any IMO, IPhO, IOI something?</p>

<p>not yet!</p>

<p>I'll be trying my luck in that this year~</p>

<p>Which one is it? I am just curious :)</p>

<p>You have a pretty strong resume :) Just work on presenting it nicely!! All the best!</p>

<p>You look good so far, Aman. Good luck - that really is all we can give you!</p>

<p>thanks a lot!</p>

<p>Hey what you can do is get back to us with your SAT I and SAT II scores. That would help paint a clearer picture.</p>

<p>any updates?</p>
