<p>So I am fairly new to this site and please forgive me if I break any rules. I also hope this is the right place to post this question.</p>

<p>So I am High School senior at J.K. Mullen High School in Denver, CO. I have a 23 on the ACT and a 3.67 GPA. In school I am the President of H.O.P.E (Helping Others Prompt Equality) Club, Varsity captain in Track, in National Honors Society, National Social Studies Society and a student ambassador.</p>

<p>Outside of school I am an Eagle Scout, in Kappa League, Coordinator of Volunteer with Special Olympics, Jack and Jill Beautillion, and have 198 hours of service work. I also have a job as a Sushi Chef at a restaurant and work at Gamestop.</p>

<p>My college essay is about how being an African American Eagle Scout in an all white troop has affected my determination to become a leader amongst my community and strive to become a successful Architect. Also I have visited the School twice, talked to the administrator a lot, and talked to the head professor of the Architect program, if any of that matters.</p>

<p>So I am really really really nervous and I don't know if i should or shouldn't be nervous about my chances of getting in. Any criticism is also appreciated! THANK YOU SO MUCH! :)</p>

<p>You have a good chance. It’s never a slam dunk because of all the highly qualified applicants. Waiting is so hard, isn’t it? We are in the same boat with my S. Good luck to you!</p>

<p>I think you have a great chance. One other thing in your favor: there are far more women at Univ. SD than men, and when we toured a couple years ago, the tour guide told us flat out that the school is working hard to balance that out.</p>
