<p>It's September of my senior year! Yeah! Although calc, AP Psych, and AP English may kill me. Anyways, I'm wondering about my chances at the following schools:</p>
<p>Fairfield Unversity
<p>GPA: 3.3 unweighted, honors and pre-AP courses. Slight upward trend. One C</p>
<p>SAT I: 720 CR, 630 M, 690 W</p>
<p>EC's: Student Council (9-10) SADD (10-11) Christ's Closet (free clothing store, 9-10) Part time job (paid for my tuition since grade 9). </p>
<p>National, history, and French honor societies</p>
<p>My intended major is nursing (speech pathology at Emerson)</p>

<p>I’d say Northeastern is a reach, and Quinnipiac, SUNY Stony Brook and Drexel are matches. Work on writing an awesome essay and getting great recs, and you should be fine.</p>
<p>(Sorry, I don’t know about the rest.)</p>
<p>Chance me? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1550664-chance-me-ill-chance-you-back-super-promptly.html[/url] ”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1550664-chance-me-ill-chance-you-back-super-promptly.html</a></p> ;
<p>Done and done! I’ll take this opportunity to bump the thread!</p>
<p>Drexel and UCONN are low matches, and I’m not very familiar with the other colleges.</p>
<p>Interesting extracurriculars. How good are you at writing?</p>
<p>Here are my approximations based on looking up stats for these schools. I’m not familiar with most of them, so these might be a little off.</p>
<p>Fairfield Unversity - Safety

<p>Of the ones I know: </p>
<p>UCONN: safety
<p>I bet you could dream a bit and apply somewhere a bit tougher, since you look good on your list…what about brandeis? What do you want to study?</p>
<p>chance back, maybe?http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1550070-looking-some-helpful-input-chance-me.html[/url] ”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1550070-looking-some-helpful-input-chance-me.html</a></p> ;

<p>Any other major besides nursing I’d agree with most of above, however there are almost NO safeties when applying to nursing programs - they are VERY competitive, and many only have a set number of spots open (ex. Endicott and UNH are very small freshman nursing classes). Continue an upward trend with GPA, apply early to your top choices, visit the schools - Quinnipiac is a top nursing school - visit the North Haven campus with the new medical school and top notch facilities - I love it here (nursing program - was very competitive to be accepted, but worth every single effort, grade, essay, etc.). Best of luck - if you love nursing go for it!!</p>
<p>I’m going to the open house on the 21st! I agree, there are no true safeties-which is horrendous</p>
<p>-Safeties-
<p>-Matches-
<p>-Low reaches-
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>I’m applying to Drexel too!! Good luck!</p>
<p>Thank you! All chances have been completed, I’ll take this opportunity to bump the thread</p>
