All right, I've lowered my expectations to Lehigh University, though that school isn't low or anything. Can someone give me some stats of an average person at Lehigh?

ita really good, university like renessler, u need atleast a 1300 SAT and higher than a 3.5 GPA. Lehigh like ec's, know that for a fact. I'm going to apply for Lehigh/Drexel's BS/MD program.

You probably do not need a 1300 SAT. With a 3.5 average and good EC's anything over 1220 would be fine. Higher is obviously better though.

Horseman, what's the BS/MD program like? Could you shed some light?

It's selective, but not too selective. About the same as my school (f&m). Tons of ppl at the college advisement day got into Lehigh, so it seems like a close competitor with f&m. I got into f&m with a 1270 and a 3.65 gpa. I think Lehigh would have the same expectations. Soccer recruit though.

I live near Lehigh. Big Frat scene. Um, they want URMs more than anything. My friend (African American) got in with 1060 SAT score and no AP credits.

I got into Lehigh this year as a transfer, although I'm not going because it cost too much. I have a 3.47 college gpa.... didn't do too well in high school or on the SATs. I went to one of the accepted student day things and was pretty impressed. A lot of the other students there had gotten into Fordham, Boston College, etc. The professors and students seemed really nice and the campus is amazing. If I had the money I would definately go there.

Ziplocky, any chance you live near Allentown? That's where I'm at.
