Hello!
I plan on applying ED to Bucknell this fall and would like to see if I have a chance.
GPA: 3.5/4.0 3.8 composite (whatever that is)
ACT: 31 (May go up)
Rank: Top 10-15% of 350.
2 Varsity Sports
President of an academic club.
NHS
Part-time job (20-25 hrs/wk)
Will graduate with 4 AP Classes.
i think you have a decent chance! I have a friend who got into there with similar stats. I’m from cali so i’m not too familiar with Liberal art schools on the east coast
GPA is a bit low, but since you are applying ED I think your chances are solid.
Good luck
Slightly lowish GPA and weak ECs (although you have a job so this makes some sense). You stand a decent chance though. I’d work on your ECs and make sure your essays are good.
Oh yeah I’m going to work really hard on my essay. I am going to get it revised by a few teachers and other admission “specialists”. And I have a longer list of EC’s, but I just put the bigger things here.
The only concern I have, is your course rigor. Bucknell looks at the student as a whole and it may look like you don’t challenge yourself because 4 Aps definitely isn’t alot
