The Ramapo College of New Jersey

“Good grades, mostly A's (3Dec 09 2010English
Good grades, mostly A's (3.6), around 1700 SAT (3 sections), be involved, community service, write an awesome essay, show them you're interested. People DO get rejected, it's not an easy school to get into - I know two qualified applicants - one got denied, one waitlisted then denied.
SAT: 1700 Female

“Extra-Curriculars are something they look at very highly hereNov 09 2010Nursing
Extra-Curriculars are something they look at very highly here. I did field hockey, Choir, secretary of a club, and crew all four years of school. Also your class rank and junior/senior grades. I did fairly well on the ACT but horrible on the SAT's and it didn't seem to affect my standings.
ACT: 27 Female

“Ramapo is very big onMar 17 2009Communications
Ramapo is very big on SAT scores, they def matter more than grades but grades are also important. It is getting more competitive to get in because they only have enough room for about 900 freshmen and more and more students are applying each year. I recommend contacting a coach so they can put a special request for you in the admissions department if you are planning on playing a sport. Also, if you are planning on getting ANY scholarship whatsoever you need a 1230 or higher SAT. There are no sports scholarships or GPA based scholarships.
ACT: 23 SAT: 1460 Female

“First, do well on theFeb 17 2008Language - French/Spanish/etc.
First, do well on the SATs. Take classes, read books, whatever you have to. Second, join a team and distinguish yourself in high school; despite measures to the contrary, coaches do have some sway over the admissions office and can influence the decision in an applicant's favor.
SAT: 1560 Male

Anybody with decent grades and SAT scores will probably be accepted if you have some other perk like athletics or work experience too.
