Get good grades in high school, get a decentApr 14 2011Engineering Department
Get good grades in high school, get a decent SAT score, and don't be afraid of an on campus interview. An interview will only solidify your acceptance if your grades are good, and help you get in if your grades are a little lower than you would like. An interview can also help you get additional scholarship money.
