[quote=Anonymous]It's at least 13+. Probably more like 15. As has been explained on here many times, Chicago likes kids from top private schools. If you are coming from Sidwell, NCS, STA you can almost count on admission if you have decently strong grades (say a 3.7 and up). Occasionally they will even admit a 3.5. This is not to say that every Chicago matriculant has a 3.7 because some of the matriculants are also towards the very top of the class with a 3.9+ and a shot at HYP but chose Chicago. But for others, Chicago it is the one top10 or even top20 university that is a pretty sure bet if you come from one of these high schools and are a reasonably strong student. Last year STA sent a full 10% of the graduating class to Chicago. They just really like private school kids, probably because they come full pay and they reliably know how to read, write and think very well as they've been trained for years to do so. [/quote]
