<p>My younger sis is applying, stats are SAT 1090, ACT 22 ,GPA 3.6, lots of EC's, no honors or AP's. Any chance?</p>

<p>Instate? (10char)</p>

3

<p>OOS but forgot to mention LEGACY</p>

4

<p>Does UDel have different standards for admission for OOS and in-state applicants ?</p>

<p>“Does UDel have different standards for admission for OOS and in-state applicants ?”</p>

<p>Absolutely. [Note: The links below are different articles.]</p>

<p>So how does it differ for out of state?</p>

<p>Assuming that stats of incoming students haven’t improved over the past three years, the following article suggests that “qualifying” stats (shown in the earlier link) are below the 25th percentile for the incoming class.</p>

<p>So, does anyone think she has a chance ? Does legacy make a big difference?</p>

9

<p>You might try looking for a thread that talks about legacy (or start one with it in the title if there isn’t). Is the prior student a regular donor?</p>

10

<p>Yes the prior student is a regular donor and has been since he graduated. Has anyone on this board get into Udel with borderline stats due to legacy?</p>

11

<p>Sorry jterp, I also know some one trying to get in who is legacy, did not mean to take over your thread.</p>

<p>SAT 1090 and ACT 22 are low, not borderline. Not my intention to be unkind, just realistic. There were kids from my DD’s high school with stats much higher who were turned away. Then again - they were not legacy. I will be interested to hear what happens.</p>
