Extracurriculars are huge and Community Service is very very important. SAT's and good grades are always a plus too though lol
SAT: 1490 Female
Keep theSep 09 2006Business - Management and Administration
Keep the GPA up.This school is getting a very good reputation and it is a lot harder to get into these days. In fact, 2006 class had 13,000 application for 1600 spots. It looks like they take 400 students for each of the 4 colleges.
Get involved in high school. This university likes a student who has participated in lots of extra activities.
In fact, Villanova is the only university, that we applied to, that asks for a separate activity page. This is the way the school get students who like to be active in a postive way .
Villanova also asks for a second essay dealing with the Augustian philosphy of caring and giving.This is the way they are and it really shows.
Now that the School of Business has been ranked so high on the list , make a game plan of what you want, market yourself well and good luck. If you get in ,you will be very happy. What's not to like with this school
