<p>Hi I am an international student apply to Rose-Hulman! It is my top one choice so I am getting a little panic everyday as time goes by lol
So the thing I worried the most is my ACT English Score. In the website, they say the median is 30, but I only have a 28. I don't have time to retake it (I have a lot of extracurricular activities after school and I am the only international student in my school, I have to deal with a lot of visa, law etc. staff myself.)
My overall ACT is 30. I get a 36 in math(yes!), that maybe help me a little?
I am in a all girl high school in NY(gonna feel so different in RHIT), my school does not rank but I think I am in the top quarter! I take both AP Cal and AP Physics and do well in both.
lol btw my TOEFL is 103.</p>
<p>PS. I tried to call the admission office three times, nobody answered...
PPS. I applied in New Year's Eve, so my application hasn't been processed yet *worried</p>
<p>Don’t worry! Your TOEFL is good, so I’m sure that helps. </p>
<p>The MEDIAN is 30. This means that half of the students had less than 30. Yes, that means people got 28s, 26s, etc. An ACT English score below the median is not a disqualifier.</p>
<p>Thank you so much! Your reply actually make my day!
Do you think I should visit the campus before I get an admission decision?
Again thank you!!!</p>
<p>So campus visit won’t affect the admission decision? I don’t know how difficult it is to be accepted as an out-of-state student(especially an international student), but it seems really helpful to meet the officers in person. Also I am chinese and it seems that there are A LOT OF chinese international students in Rose-Hulman(which is really weird and confused me a little)
I think I’m panic way to hard for the whole application thing… :</p>
<p>Your test score is good enough for admission (above average). My S got admitted in EA as OOS without campus visit. Campus visit is not a major factor in deciding admission. Just make sure all materials got to the office and wait for the good news. Good luck.</p>
