Business - Management and Administration
not hard to get in to, you probably need a 26 or higher on the ACT, and mostly A's and B's on your transcript. they also like to see that you took honors or upper level classes and that you challenged yourself with AP classes even if you could have gotten higher grades taking regular level classes.
Journalism
Not too hard, get good grades, get good test scores, and put in the common app, boom your in. I hear the Journalism department is one of the toughest to get into, so I can only imagine how easy the other ones are.
Psychology
Academic background spoke for itself...
Anthropology
I transferred in from a state school with a very high GPA - this gave me an additional $5000 in Merit aid - something that wouldn't have been available to me had I applied right out of highschool (my highschool GPA was not exciting.. about a 3.1)
Undecided
I applied to the Park school, but didn't get in. They let me in when I changed my major to Exploratory, though. If your GPA is less than a 3.5 and you aren't the next Steven Spielburg, don't bother applying to the Park school. They are very exclusive. I'm pretty sure that goes for the Whalen school and, to a lesser extent, the theatre department as well. But if the arts aren't your aim, you shouldn't have much trouble getting in.

An essay and addendum sheet with a "common app" application.
Communications
It's pretty easy to get in as long as you have decent grades and SAT scores. It's harder to get into the popular majors I listed above (music, theater, film, television/radio, and physical therapy), but if you start out undecided, you may be able to work your way into your preferred major.
Communications
Did well on the SAT's...wrote a good essay...standard fare.
Communications
DO NOT apply early decision- it cost me any change of getting financial aid.
