“Just have a fairly descent SAT score and descentApr 23 2006Biology
Just have a fairly descent SAT score and descent grades and you shouldn't have a difficult time getting in. This is no UVA by any means, therefore, you shouldn't sweat too much about the admission process with this school.

“It's getting harder to get into JMUMar 22 2006Biology
It's getting harder to get into JMU...However it's still not extremely difficult. Maintain above a 3.0 GPA, get about 1100 on your SATS (not sure what that converts to with the new testing format), be active in highschool and you'll get in. I got early action with a 3.5, 1220 on my boards..I wasn't extremely active in clubs, but I did do a lot of community service. Also, being out of state helps. I know many people who have gotten in out of state with some below average statistics.
SAT: 1220 Female

When I applied, the application was very easy, I don't believe there was an essay at that time. I wasn't involved in any sports in High School, but did participate in a number of clubs (though never held an office) and was at the top 10% of my class.
SAT: 1230 Female
