I had gradeFeb 17 2015Business - Management and Administration
I had grades and scores near the 75th percentile, but my extracurriculars were below average. Again, it's all about marketing yourself and making Villanova seem like a place you will thrive, even if you did not in high school. But if you come, don't repeat your high school tactics; get involved and do as much as you can. You'll feel like a better person, it's great for your resume, and even if it doesn't "count" for Law or Med school, good ECs give you a great background as a person, which will help you in the long run.

Good statsFeb 25 2012Other
Good stats. I don't even think they read my essay because I wrote it last minute and swear it could have probably been written as a generic essay by a fifth grader about being a nice person.
