<p>You're in with merit money too. What major are you considering?</p>

3

<p>aerospace... :)</p>

4

<p>Ajayc, personally, I think you will have no problem. You also seem to be a foreign student,which Cincinnati seems to want.</p>

5

<p>why does UC want intls? :D</p>

6

<p>Ajayc, UC wants both foreign and out of state students for two reasons:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>They want a diverse student body. Most of the kids are from Ohio since it is a state school. All schools, even state schools,want diversity of students.</p></li>
<li><p>Out of state students, which include foreign students, pay a lot more in tuition than in-state students.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Its a decent school, but: SAT above ~1500/2400 + breathing + international = automatic acceptance
Or SAT above ~1550/2400 + breathing = automatic acceptance
(DAAP is excluded from this analysis.)</p>

<p>(Sigh) I will say this again, you can't evaluate schools by their SATs alone. In fact, I am not sure that using SATs in anyway is indicative of the quality of a school. UC has a terrific engineering program,which has a strong coop component. I have met some really bright kids in their engineering program due to this coop.</p>

<p>Be advised: Engineering at UC is very hard!</p>

<p>how could u even think u didnt have a chance</p>

<p>and taxguy...engineering is hard everywhere it seems :)</p>

<p>or so im told</p>
