<p>I got rejected at Wharton after getting deferred ED. The reason I got rejected (I believe) was that my SAT was 2160/ ACT 33. I wanted to know if Wharton only accepts 2300+ for people WHO ARE NOT URMs, LEAGACY, and Athletes. </p>
<p>Im not bitter bout being rejected because I believe that I simply wasnt competitive enough</p>
<p>These were my stats:</p>
<p>2300+s certainly help…but I’d say Wharton admits quite a few hookless students with lower scores than that. Really, there’s no use in questioning your decisions. I got rejected from my total dream school (Princeton); however, it took me about 5 minutes to get over it and start loving my new choices.</p>
<p>SATs matter at every selective college… And yes, those SAT scores probably hurt your Wharton chances.</p>
<p>You can have a perfect SAT score, but if your applications is just ordinary, you may not stand out among everyone else who applies. With the competition today, there may be no specific reason why someone is denied other than the lack of a reason for them to be admitted.</p>
<p>I am hoping someone on this thread can post if they got into Wharton and what their score was if they got in with an SAT below 2200 or ACt 34</p>
<p>tbh, I don’t see anything that stands out on your application. You’re definitely a strong applicant but so are many many others. Your ec’s seem to scattered and nothing jumps out at me as being particularly meaningful. Given that you had a 3 on Spanish, that would also have hurt your chances for Huntsman given that it does generally require a high level of language proficiency.</p>
<p>The only thing that I wanted to have an impact on my application was my rec by the Majority Leader of Congress. </p>
<p>I mean for ecs, everyone has them so its not like they give anyone an edge (except athletes). I felt that because my ecs werent horrible that the real problem was either my essay or my sats.</p>

<p>wow this is impressively wrong</p>
<p>I was admitted to Wharton with a 2120 SAT, a 29 ACT and a 3.5 UW GPA. I have to admit I had other things going for me, and had some really unique/impressive hooks. I was also a deferred ED candidate. I think what I accomplished from the time of my deferment really must have impressed them; SATs do matter, but they’re not everything.</p>
