Stanford University (Admission)

This post will review the admission process of Stanford University, in Stanford, California. Stanford is a private university that is one of the top schools in academics and sports. If we were to draw comparison, Stanford University in the realm of colleges is analogous to Stuyvesant High School in the realm of high schools.

Review Process
Unlike NYU, Stanford reviews admissions heavily on grades and talents. Stanford has a 5% acceptance rate, with an average GPA acceptance of 3.95. This converts to a transcript average required above 98. This is pretty high, so all of you scholars out there, this may be your school.

Grades is the main focus, and they value talent and skills as well. If you have plenty of extracurricular activities and achievements, then their grade acceptance shifts by 3%. This, in simple terms means that they can accept students with grades above 96% if they have notable accomplishments.

SAT Score Review
Stanford University has a competitive review for SAT scores. For math, they accept students within the range of 700-800 points. For English, they accept students with scores of 690-800 points. The ACT score acceptance is 31-35. STUDY STUDY STUDY!

Using our rating formula, we rate the admission of the blog as a 98.

  2. I like how there is an introduction to this post and gives readers insight on what should be expected. It really draws high school readers in, like myself, when connections are made in which we can relate to. I enjoyed this article depicting the admissions and if one was interested in Standford University, this would be a very helpful post to read.

  4. I found this blog very informative but I think it would help people if you included some of the majors that are offered as well as what the campus is like. It would make the post seem fuller.
