<p>I'm applying EA to SFS</p>

<p>White male anglosaxon Protestant
Small public high school
Currently #1 in class of 190
All A's (no A-'s either) throughout high school
4.4 weighted GPA
I have taken every possible college/AP class
SATs- 2170 (680 CR 730 M 760 W)
SAT IIs- 660 Math 2, 710 Physics, 790 US History
APs- 5 on AP Euro and US
I also want to mention that I have a vested interest in French, I visited France last year and I hosted a student this summer. I'm taking AP french this year online and I did a summer governors school program for French this summer as well.</p>

<p>As for extracurriculars-
4 years of varsity tennis (was #1 last year)
4 years of varsity cross country, co-captain this year
4 years concert band, 2nd chair flute last year
Play jazz piano, started a local combo last year, regularly play with local jazz musicians
Pretty active in church; I have been acolyting since I was 9 pretty regularly
NHS secretary, class president last year
Honor council</p>

<p>My interview went awesome. The woman loved me and I think she's going to fight for me because nobody she's ever interviewed from this area has gotten into Georgetown.</p>

<p>As a GU alum, I sincerely hope they take you EA. Even if they roll you over to RD do not be discouraged because that happens to all but the most select students (GU one of the few schools where it is harder to get in ED than RD) and will not hurt your RD chances as the application is reviewed a new by a different group of admissions officers. </p>

<p>My guess is you will eventually get in due to the #1 class ranking, rigorous curriculum (the best of what your school offered), and solid ECs, but do not be surprised if you get rolled over to RD due to the 1390 SAT (CR + M) and average SAT II’s (except for USH). Good luck!</p>
