_{* Engineering applicants should have 3 units of laboratory science including Physics and Chemistry and 4 units of College Prep Math including Precalculus. Calculus is strongly recommended.}

School Report and Counselor Recommendation

The Common Application School Report and Counselor Recommendation allow your secondary school counselor or other school administrator who knows you well to tell us about you: your energy and enthusiasm, your impact on your school community and your academic strengths. The information we gather also sets your academic experience in context for us: how many of your classmates go on to attend a four-year college, what kinds of advanced or accelerated courses (if any) are offered at your school and the size of your class. This information is important to us as we assess your achievements within your school environment first, and then within our overall applicant pool.
