GPA of above 3.5 and SAT above 1350 should do the job.

Do lots of extracurricular activities, and be in the top 10% of your class, having SAT scroes above 1350, and show lot of interest in AU. They are getting a lot of applications, and are getting competative, so they will only select the best overall students.

Write a good essay and have great recommendations. Also, do well in school. Grades matter more than test scores (SAT/ACT), and so does the quality of the courses you take. Don't take lamo classes.

53% of the students were admitted for fall 2004. The school is planning to admitt less than half next year. I made the upper 1300s on my SAT and top 5% in my high school class.

AU is getting very selective. My SAT score was above 1400, with a GPA of 3.8, so if you plan to enroll for Fall 2005, make sure your SAT scores are pretty good, because AU's entering fall freshman class of 2005 will be the most competative so far, with more than 16000 applicants, and on the other hand AU is rapidly raising it's ranking and endowment, making it challenging.

I scored a 1560 on SAT and hand a GPA of 3.4. I strongly recommend that have SAT's above 1350 mark and a good GPA with lot's of activities and you should be in the top 15% of your class at LEAST, as AU's enrolling Fall 2005 class will be the most competative, also, AU is dramatically for the first time reducing it's acceptance rate, making it much more competative.

Cultures/Civilization

ACT → SAT →
Have experience in activism and/or something political. The acceptance rate is bound to decrease and AU will get harder to get into to.

Journalism

ACT → SAT →
I knew what I wanted to do, and I talked about it in my entrance essay. I'd also recommend taking AP courses to get out of as many basic classes as you can (it's way cheaper).
