[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"3.7 weighted and 1300 would get you into most flagships 15-20 years ago. Not now. Still gets you into some but others are a toss-up or reach."

Even once you account for SAT and GPA inflation, this still depends on your major.  Some schools admit by major and/or department, it can really make a difference so try to find some information that allows you to figure out if the major your DC wants is the most or least competitive at the prospective school.[/quote]

Any idea where one can find out which schools admit by major versus overall acceptance to the school. I know UMD admits to school first but not sure about others. It would interesting to have this information.[/quote]

Va Tech. Here you can search by college and major (super helpful - I wish more placed did this): https://www.ir.vt.edu/data/student/admissions.html[/quote]

Very true re: VT. Engineering admissions are on a completely different level than non-engineering. [/quote]
