admissions criteria

Admissions criteria refer to the standards and requirements that a school, college, or university uses to evaluate applicants for admission. These criteria can include academic performance (like grades and test scores), extracurricular activities, recommendation letters, personal essays, and sometimes interviews. Each institution sets its own specific criteria based on its mission and values, aiming to select students who will thrive in their programs and contribute positively to the campus community. Understanding these criteria helps applicants prepare effectively and present their strengths in the application process.
