<p>Hello, I am currently a junior in highschool. I want to go into a Physician assistant program at either BU or NEU except I dont know If I can get in. I have a cumulative average of 3.8, Unweighted GPA and I am 20/157 students at my school (top 10% or so). These are the classes I have taken/currently taking</p>

<p>Spanish I
Sophomore Year
Honors Chem
Honors Precalc
Honors English
Honors US II

<p>Junior Year
Honors English
AP Bio
AP US

Honors Calculus
Spanish III</p>

<p>Senior year…planning to take Honors english, Honors World, AP Calc AB, Honors Physics, Spanish IV</p>

<p>I get mostly A’s and when I do get B’s theyre in Math. My two dream schools are BU and NEU and I just really want to get in except I dont know if I could. Hopefully I get a 1900 on my SATs.</p>

<p>I am involved in Girls tennis, 4 clubs, and have 50 hours of community service ( hoping its 100 by this summer )
Keep in mind my school is very very small and we only have a total of 5 aps and select amount of clubs.</p>

<p>I am Indian, So im not sure if that helps ive heard that colleges like the “minorities”
I am first generation, first to go to college from my family as well.</p>

<p>I am fluent in English, Gujariti, Hindi, and taking third year of Spanish right now.</p>

<p>Is it possible for BU or NEU to even consider me?</p>

<p>The Northeastern PA program is a master’s degree program, as are most if not all PA programs.

<p>You will need to get an undergrad degree first. </p>

<p>Also, Asians are not considered to be an under represented minority. </p>

<p>Thank you, could I still go to NEU for the first four years for the undergrad program? And then still do my Masters there?</p>
