I'm going there next year (although move in day is Aug 18th which is less than four months from now, so you can't really call it next year) as a freshman. I got in with a 3.5 GPA and a 2100 new SAT score, and a 31 ACT score. I'm trying HARD for a single dorm, hopefully in Chapel Glen (but I don't know how hard it'll be to get a single as a freshman).
Skiing wise, I'm getting an Alta (for sure) pass and a Solitude (tentatively, might get it for somewhere else) pass.
How hard is it to schedule your classes freshman year to make it easy for skiing? Probably pretty tough but oh well... I'm bringing a car so at least I can split whenever I want (with gas the way it is, anyone who wants to throw down gas money can hitch a ride... LCC mostly)
