GARFIELD Monday thru Saturday IN THE Bryan-College Station “The new requirements will have very little effect on our en rollment this fall,” Gale 1 . Wood, associate director of admissions, said. The University of Arkansas, a state-supported school, has 12,489 undergraduates enrol led. To be accepted by the uni versity, a student must have gra duated from an accredited high school, have obtained at least a 2.0 grade point average, and have a score of at least 18 on the ACT. However, a student may be admitted into a special prog ram at the university without meeting these requirements. Manbeth Lynes, assistant di rector of admissions for the Uni versity of Arkansas in Fayettevil le, said most students enter the College of Arts and Sciences. The colleges of business admi nistration and engineering have grown the fastest, she said. The University of Houston, Rice University, Baylor Univer sity, Texas Christian University, and Southern Methodist Uni versity all are planning on limit ing enrollment in the future. Robert Brashear, assistant di rector of admissions, said the University of Houston is plan ning to raise entrance require ments in the fall of 1983. A stu dent in the bottom quarter of his class will be required to have a minimum SAT score of 1,000. The SAT score may will de crease by 100 points for every quarter higher a student ranks. At Texas Christian Univer sity, Al Young, director of trans fer admissions, said it is likely that entrance requirements will rise in the near future. Students now must be in the top half of their graduating class and have a minimum score of 400 on both the verbal and mathematics sec tions of the SAT, or a score of 18 on the ACT . Southern Methodist Univer sity is lowering the number of freshmen that will be admitted this fall. Scott F. Healy, director of admissions, said it will just be a case of more students applying for less spots. SMU bases its acceptances on grade point average and class rank, as well as extracurricular activities, recommendations, a personal interview and a 300- word essay. Prospective SMU students must have taken certain re quired classes while in high school, such as a designated number of math, English and science classes. Those accepted into the university usually rank in the upper third of their class if they went to a public high school, and in the top half of their class if they went to a pri vate school, Healy said. Rice University has an undergraduate enrollment of 2,500. Rice judges its applicants on several dif ferent criteria, in cluding high school grades, SAT and achievement test scores. high school reconintj and a personal intend At Baylor Univenij Thomas, associated admissions, said entrJ qui cements will not T the near future; how® are plans to becomes live when judging uiiH plicants.
