Appeals

I am in the making of writing an appeals section, and will be getting help from my friend who appealed to the UC schools and got into a few of them. He finally decided UCD, and I am proud that his method actually worked. Not much has been discussed about appeals except for the basics so maybe he will update this page about everything you guys need know.

What makes a strong candidate???

A strong candidate is a person who is well rounded. This means you should do well in both schools and join social groups or other types of clubs to understand your own passions. Many people I have spoke with claim, for example, that Boy Scouts can't get them into a college. The point isn't that Boy Scouts can't get you into college, but that you must do more then Boy Scouts alone and maintain a good GPA and SAT score to also be considered. So remember that when you go to apply, do not just focus on one tool to help you into college. Utilize your whole arsenal because you need whatever it takes to get in.
