My name is Aktan, I’m an international student. I have 4,8 GPA / 5
SAT 1200/1600 (620 reading, 580 math, I know it’s really bad), TOEFL 105, and strong ECA’s. I’m only 16 years old so I decided to take a gap year, increase my SAT score to 1400 or above so I’ll have strong application. For international students who got admitted, could you please help other potentional students and write your SAT, TOEFL, GPA, etc?
Also please, if possible could you please let me know how much fin.aid did they give you?
Hi Atkan!
Lafayette requires a high GPA and likes to see good scores, but that is not all. I have pretty good scores, but the reason I was accepted was that I had very good extracurricular actives and leadership roles. They really look into WHO you are as a person, not WHAT you are as a student.
Look into interviewing. Is it possible to do a Skype interview since you are international?
