Applicant's Advice
"Don't rely on test scores alone to carry application. Consider applying to less saturated majors (e.g., film) if that's a genuine interest, then switch majors. Align awards and ECs with intended major. Spend adequate time on essays and supplements with personal voice. Prioritize quality over quantity. Consider ED/REA strategy. Build application around strongest points rather than spreading too thin."
