Your grades look fine but your SAT is a bit low if it is on the 2400 scale. EC’s are good. Good Luck.
btw. What other schools are you considering?
Holy Cross is Test Optional. Your SATs shouldn’t hurt you.
Are you from New England? HC is trying to diversify so being from outside the northeast would help.
You should not submit your SAT scores. But your gpa is great.
Good luck!
