Re: FAU Incoming Freshmen Summer/Fall 2013
Last year we had our application online until August I think. We took this year's off June 1st and actually had to turn people away because we're pretty much at capacity at the moment. That is a GREAT thing because it means we're not getting everyone leftovers.

I'm not sure we can give that info. out yet since the final numbers haven't been run but I can tell you that this year's class will be the largest and one of the most, if not THE most competitive class we've ever had. I expect the profile to be the same, if not a little better than they were this year. GPA: 3.3-3.9, SAT: 1560-1770, ACT: 23-27 (FAU - Freshman Requirements)

SOLID.
Thanks for the quality post FAUfasho!

The more application received, the more get turned down, the lower the selectivity rate. Even though it may not mean much it looks good.

Is FAU receiving a large number of applications this year? Just curious with all the controversy that just happened.

I'm not sure I can divulge that info yet but it's a lot. Not as many as 2011 but it's close.

I hope we have real gains. While we're on an upward trend, we're still behind our peers. It's kind of crazy what kind of numbers I'm seeing for the average GPA of FIU, UCF, etc.
IIRC our average SAT still hasn't broken (on the old scale) 1100 yet! That's bad. That number needs to improve.

Guess Stomp Jesus and Owlcatraz have reaped irreversible damage!

I also have another theory as to why FIU has "higher" requirements than us. But that can wait for another day,lol.
