<p>as with any school, the most important factors are going to be the grades and SATs/ACT. Try to get very high grades and get around 1900-2000 on the SATs or like 28-30 on ACT. SAT subject tests are not required I think, but depending on your major, maybe taking one related to it would be nice. Extracurriculars are a good plus too especially leadership positions. Challenging courses like APs show that you really worked hard to attain high grades.</p>
