<p>I know these posts are annoying...</p>
<p>But how difficult is it to get into this school?
I mean...who got rejected/accepted and what are your stats?</p>
<p>I intend to enter as a Wri, Lit, and Pub major,
I got a thirty on my ACT, and plan to retake it...
Really low on my SAT...like, 1880? retaking, also.
And a 720 on the SAT II for lit...
My grades are pretty bad. About a 3.5.
I'm taking the most difficult classes, except in math,
And also taking additional English creds.
My EC's are semi-good... I'm really involved, but in a wide spread of things...(i.e- Radio, drama, editor of newspaper, treasurer of 4-H)
And yeah...</p>
<p>so help? I recently visited and fell in love with the school and the city.</p>
<p>I don't think admissions at Emerson is too difficult... I was accepted into the Honors Program (which you must apply for and which gives you a half tuition scholarship) and these were my stats</p>
<p>SAT 750 V 740 M 720 W
SAT II 780 Lit 660 Math 660 Chem</p>
<p>95 weighted average
a lot of ECs
Varsity Tennis (they wanted me to play on their team)</p>
<p>so yeah, you could prob get into the honors program there. But if you're not sure about writing lit publishing then apply to other schools in the area. I applied to BC BU Tufts and Emerson and in the end I didn't want to force myself into the writing publishing major when I wasn't sure and decided to go to Tufts.</p>
<p>If that's what you want to do though then good luck and make sure you apply to the honors program.</p>
<p>Wow...you have pretty much amazing stats, though.</p>
<p>Thanks, however.</p>
<p>And i was planning on applying to the honors program because, as you said, it pays half the tuition.</p>
<p>Thanks again!</p>
<p>::goes off to work on admissions essays::</p>
<p>It's not very difficult at all, IMO. Honors essay topic was a bit out there, but I was admitted.</p>
<p>What were your stats like?</p>
<p>And i know essays mean A LOT at Emerson... i've started on them now, but they feel pressured..i'unno.</p>
<p>2100 SATs, 102 average (weighted, or something like that) blah blah blah. I'd say your ECs count for more than the stats, though that's not even true since I knew people who got in with doing basically 0 EC activities.</p>
<p>And yeah, essays are important. Just be unique, and be yourself. Don't approach it like a paper.</p>
<p>I used to work in the admissions office, and honestly... as important as your grades are - showing your individualism and creativity is vital at Emerson.</p>
<p>Financial Aid availability at Emerson?</p>
