<p>I posted this over at the Admissions forum but thought it might be more appropriate in this forum.</p>
<p>How difficult is it usually to gain admittance to Lehigh? In terms of number of applicants accepted from those that applied, what are some of the general stats for those with strong chances?</p>
<p>I love the school but don't know if I've got the credentials for it</p>
<p>oh btw, I'm from the west coast, and an Asian, don't know if that would help or not</p>
<p>The middle 50% SAT scores = 1220-1400, with a 39% acceptance rate. If you're looking for comparisons, this is approximately the same selectivity ballpark as places like Wake Forest, NYU, or Rochester.</p>
<p>Wow I have a 1220 SAT, barely in there, but my GPA isn't all that great and not sure how my ECs will stack up against others.</p>
<p>I understand that Lehigh is getting very difficult to get into. However, lots of applicants WILL be accepted ... so go ahead & apply!</p>
<p>Lehigh is in the very elite Patriot League which has many of the oldest and most prestigious LACs in the country that play Division 1.</p>
<p>It's not too hard to get into. But if you want to apply, just keep focused in school and i'm sure you'll get in.</p>
<p>Per the Princeton Review 90% of students were in the top 10% of their high schoool class

<p>wowzers!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>Lehigh is typical of the Patriot League schools. If you look at the Princeton Review statistics for each school, nearly all students accepted are in the top 10% of their class.</p>
