Getting into college may be a tough enough ordeal for many students, but these ultra-selective schools take the cake for their low admission rates.
A survey from 24/7 Wall St. ranked 50 colleges using several factors, ranging from admissions rates to SAT scores.
The survey took its data from the U.S. Department of Education. The Top 20 schools had very low admission rates, with the #1 school only having a 4% admission rate and an average 800 SAT score in math.
Two Pennsylvania-based schools made the Top 20.
