Can I get into Fordham

<p>Im starting junior year in High school, I have a 3.5 gpa. I am taking two AP classes this year. I go to one of the most rigorous public High Schools in New York. I am doing private tutoring for SAT and a review class. I have participated in Best Buddies club freshman, sophomore, and my junior year. Soph. year i was a treasurer, and Vice President Junior year. I have been in Student Council since sophomore year and junior year I got elected PR officer. I am also in a school club that sells food and drinks at football games every weekend, and i am treasurer of that as well. I played french horn all through out middle school and high school and I am now first chair in my schools band. I also volunteered 2 summers helping special needs children and adults at a day camp. In the winter I volunteer every thursday for 2 hours playing with special needs kids, and helping them swim. I run track every season for my school as well. My very successful family friend is an alumni of Fordham and he said he would write a letter for me, he also gives alot of money to the school every year. What are my chances of getting into Fordham and what can i do to increase them.</p>

<p>Your chances sound pretty good. Just try to get your GPA up a little higher and shoot for 2000+ on SATs and you’ve got a good likelihood of getting in.</p>

<p>Fordham: Aim for 28+/1950+</p>
