Boston University Chance Me!!!! Low ACT :(

Hello, I if someone can chance me that would be nice.

GPA: 4.365 UW out of 4.0
ACT:21
Extra Circulars: Over 12
Awards: My best award is the President’s Volunteer Service Award
Hooks:First Gen, Essay, Independently living alone

I am also a minority if that helps

@LilyL5282 I would say that despite your low ACT score, you would have a pretty good change of getting in. You have your GPA, EC’s, and awards going for you which will really help. How many times did you take the ACT?

@bostonbound123 I have taken it twice, but what hurts me the most in my Standardize testing is my reading and writing. I have come far with the English language especially in my high school career. English isn’t my first language, and I come from a household where I am exposed to incorrect grammar.

@bostonbound123 I haven’t received my 2nd scoring yet, still waiting!

You received an A+ in every course in high school?

If you chose the CGS option you have a slight chance at BU, otherwise out of reach.

@tomofboston
I think I have received one B+ in high school in my entire high school career. But I do discuss my slight grade drop and drop in high school activities from a personal situation I have faced.

I have been told by admissions that if I apply for CAS and show intereinterest CGS, I get reviewed twice.
I put my major as Chinese or East Asian Languages and Culture if that is also relevant
