26 According to the National Association of College Admission Counselors, what factors count MOST for getting into college? Most Schools will perform a Comprehensive Review of the applicant. Admission Officers identify the top factors in the admission decision for the Fall 2015 admission cycle: Grades in college prep course Strength of curriculum Overall high school GPA Admission test scores Among the next most important factors were: The essay A student s demonstrated interest Counselor and teacher recommendations Extracurricular activities Class rank

27 Applying Early Early Decision (ED) is binding Early Action (EA) is non-binding Restrictive Early Action (REA) means you may not apply to an EA, REA, or ED program at any private college/university in the US Does it increase my chance of acceptance? Colleges vary in percentage of early applicants they admit. A higher admission rate may correlate to stronger profiles among candidates choosing ED/EA.
