Hello!!
I was just wondering if anyone on CC who was a previous Coca Cola Scholar Winner post their stats below? I’m thinking about applying for senior year and I was just wondering what they really take into consideration!!
Thanks!

anyone…? lol
@collegehelp1010 hey, looks like this community isn’t that active on cc haha. I was a scholar in 2016, it doesn’t seem like academic stats are as big of a factor. I think extra curricular activities are really important, as well as demonstrating passion for something that you are actually passionate about. My advice is to just stay as honest as possible. The people reading your apps are really great people (except in the first round, because that is done by a computer, I believe). If you are still curious about stats, you can message me and I’ll post or let you know.
Anyone else bump???
