Colleges Where Demonstrated Interest is Important or Very Important
Trying to understand how demonstrated interest factors into a college/university you're considering? Then check out our list of institutions where demonstrated interest is deemed important or very important.
To compile the list, we've identified every school in our coverage universe where the Common Data Set entry for "level of applicant's interest" is reported as important or very important. Note that the Common Data set defines four options—very important, important, considered and not considered—and that inconsistencies are likely to exist in the way colleges define these terms.
Nevertheless, the list remains a great way to get a better sense for where visiting a campus (virtually), taking advantage of an optional interview or completing an optional essay prompt may more strongly weigh on your candidacy for admission.
