<p>What schools are strong academically but review their applications more holistically than others?</p>
<p>JHU?</p>
<p>Maybe the SAT optional schools? I would think they would tend to care more about other parts of your apps, even if you do submit scores.</p>

<p>University of Chicago- intellectual interests really count there. Brown supposedly looks at factors other than statistics.</p>
<p>most LACs
tufts also comes to mind</p>
<p>Private colleges in general take a more holistic approach than state schools. If SATs are low, there are many SAT optioal schools. But let’s face it, stats are important at every college.</p>
<p>thanks, anyone for the most holistic ivy?</p>
<p>What’s the weakness you want overlooked?</p>
<p>I think Brown would be the most holistic Ivy, simply because it’s most reminiscent of an LAC. That’s just a guess, though.</p>
