Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey so I'm a rising senior white male from Wisconsin. I'm visiting some schools this summer so I'm trying to break my list down to realistic schools that I can get into and afford. I'll try to keep this relatively concise so I don't take up too much of your time. The schools I'm interested in are NYU, Fordham, Boston U, Northeastern, Wesleyan, and Vassar. Here are my stats</p>

<p>Cum. GPA: 3.75 UW
ACT: 32; Math-33, Reading-33, Science-27, English-36
SAT IIs- I plan to take US history and math II this fall
I don't have any AP credits after my junior year due to lack of AP courses for juniors at my small school, but I will be taking 4 next year.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
-Varsity Tennis- 4 years, 2 years captainship, 2 (hopefully 3) time state qualifier
-Impact (community service club)- 4 years, started new year long program for club, hopefully VP or Rep for club this year- roughly 100 hours of community service through high school
-Campaigned for Barack Obama in 2008 and will campaign for the DNC again this fall for Wisconsin senator Russ Feingold.
-Varsity Cross Country- 2 years
-My friend and I are planning on founding an Environmental club at my school this fall
-Member of NHS
-Hopefully Spanish Honor Society (it is very difficult at my school)</p>

<p>My major will probably be along the lines of Poly Sci/International Relations/Enviornmental Policy</p>

<p>Any chances for acceptance or financial aid would be very appreciated. Thanks for all the help</p>

<p>You’re in the ballpark for all of them. Good luck! If you like Wesleyan and Vassar, you might even want to take a look at Brown or possibly Occidental.</p>

<p>Just a reminder that when your “in the ballpark” for getting into a school you are seldom looking at merit aid, so if financial aid (beyond need) is important to you than you should add some financial safety schools to your list…</p>
