Each of the Ivy League colleges: Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, U Penn, Princeton and Yale has its own admissions criteria. In other words, an SAT score of 2100 means one thing at Brown, another thing at Cornell, and something else to the other six Ivy League colleges.
Hereâs what you need to know about your high school GPA to get into the Ivy Leagues : 1) Itâs ok to have a poor freshman year GPA. Whatâs important is to show an UPWARD TREND â improvement over time. 2) As important as your high school GPA is your transcript and the classes you take. Be sure to take the HARDEST CLASSES AVAILABLE â APs, IB, etc. 3) Make your junior year count. Itâs the one that Admissions Committees focus the most on â you want your best grades in this year. 4) Donât forget about the SAT. It counts as much (and sometimes more) than your high school GPA and class ranking. 5) As long as youâre in the top 5 percent of your class, roughly speaking, youâll be fine.
