Syracuse: Newhouse School

<p>So I applied to Syracuse's Newhouse School, which is said to be more competitive than SU's other areas. I was just wondering how much more competitive it is, and if anyone else had any other information on the admissions system for this particular school (Newhouse).
Thanks.</p>

<p>Don't know about admissions but a friend's D is there and loves it.</p>

<p>Very ! not to be discouraging but it is very competitive. I would say that an avg. newhouse acceptee would be eligible for like Northwestern or U Chicago, Vanderbilt...schools like that. the Stats are really hihg. the GPA is usually around 3.7--3.8 and the SAT's for writing and critical reading are usually 700+</p>

<p>Ouch.. </p>

<p>Well SAT's were a little under 700 for the writing and CR.. but my GPA was lower. I know that SAT/GPA is important, but do you know if they look at a lot of other aspects? (Recs/Interview/Essays etc)</p>

<p>yes they do! but im just giving the avg i've seen on the CC board. How about you visit the Syracuse U CC page and read old posts with stats on Newhouse..or just old posts about Newhouse in general. If u dig deep there are plenty stats for ppl who got into Newhouse last year.</p>
