<p>Have you gotten any specific awards through Girl Scouts? Those can really help you, as well as submitting all your service hours for a Presidential Volunteer Service Award.</p>

<p>Fellow key clubber! <3</p>

<p>i would say you’re in at st. joseph’s, you might be deferred from Fordham if you apply EA but most likely get in RD with no scholarship due to your subpar ACT score, probably BU and def American not sure about the others</p>

<p>you rank is really good, so i say in at all</p>

<p>I’d say you have a good shot at alot of those schools. Dickinson is a good school for German/ International Relations. My sister went there and minore in French. Alot of those schools are really nice you should try to find out which one you really want to go too</p>

<p>Unless you get a full scholarship or large scholarship to Saint Joes, I really think you could find an equal or better education for a far cheaper price (unless their German program is exceptional which is possible since I don’t know much about German). I’d say you have a strong chance at all the schools you wish to apply for.</p>
