Volunteer/Community service: Some little stuff with Rotary and NHS, but mainly volunteering at the local hospital during the summer about 150hours
Summer Activities: See above
Essays: It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t incredibly great. But, I did the one on your favorite place and there was a note saying that they were compelled to visit it, which I thought was a nice touch.
Teacher Recommendation: I think they were pretty strong and positive, probably at least not a detriment.
Counselor Rec: Positive I would assume, I know her pretty well due to all the exchange and college craziness.

@ewigewig They probably didn’t think you would actually accept the invitation to attend. Universities do sometimes reject candidates that are “overqualified” in their opinion.

Accepted with $15k scholarship-- and very excited! Will audition for possible music scholarship as well.

ACT: 30
SAT: 2050
GPA: 3.75
Rigorous course load in hs, lots of AP and dual credit classes.
Some academic leadership positions-- pres of NHS, etc.
Tons of music honors, including 1st chair state orchestra Soph and Junior years
Female from Missouri
Intended major-- undecided, probably dual social science and music

Why she got in? She’s a strong, motivated student, but is also arty and will add to the diversity at Case. Most schools don’t look only at stats. They want a varied class.

General note-- Case does an excellent job with their admissions! Very impressive how this was handled. She loved the personal note and is eagerly awaiting her t-shirt. :)
