<p>Check to see whether your HS has Naviance. If so, you can determine how well you stack up against others in your HS that have been accepted to Virginia Tech. ACIS is a well regarded program. Good luck. </p>

<p>Would I have a better chance if I put Business Undecided on my application? Or should I include ACIS from the start?</p>
