Fair to Good SAT's proof that you are not a non participating human being and a social, Catholic- Dorothy Day- kind of outlook on the poor. Realize it is easy to get into CUA, but hard to get out. Also you will not want to.

I completed the Common Application. The SAT scores were not required. Write your essay!!!! Take placement exams!!!

ATTENTION: only apply if you are extremely religious, love unsanitary places, love gross food, and you must be a republican! (I am a democrat and I want to warn all democrats that Catholic University is republican).

Easiest application ever. Auditions are a joke. If you are a male singer or a non-string player you will be admitted immediately.

Catholic is known as the second chance school. This school is for the students who had the potential in High School to be top 5% of the class students but slacked off. Catholic is known to take kids at the "average joe" academic level and graduate these same kids at the same level of those at schools such as Georgetown.

With that being said, to get into CUA you need to show that you are a good person because your character has a lot of weight as far as admissions go.

Your SAT score should be some where between a 1500 and 1900.

G.P.A should be between at least a 3.2 and 3.6

and you should show Catholic that you are ready to better your self academically because as I stated before the courses are extremely rigorous because of the type of students most often accepted here.
Catholic has a goal to take in students that do not have the best academic profile and spit them out at the level of some of the top universities in the country.

Have a lot of community service

AND SCHEDULE AN INTERVIEW *Interviews give you information on great scholarships that other people usually do not know about*
