<p>Hey Sjanuse!</p>

<p>At TCNJ, we take a holistic approach when looking at applications. The first thing we look at when evaluating a candidate is their high school transcript. We like to see students who challenge themselves in high school by taking a rigorous course load. After that, we’ll look at SAT/ACT scores, activities resume, letters of recommendation and personal essay. All of these items work on a sliding scale, so if one area is not very strong, other areas can make up for it.</p>
