I also have two possible connections to the school
They suggested I send “additional materials” that I want them to consider. I don’t have any new test scores to send so i was considering sending an essay I wrote on my work experience with the theater and film festival, along with a separate essay on my activities with Key Club. I’d also like to send my CAS portfolio or a smaller version of that? Any suggestions on things I can send by tomorrow so they receive them in time for the 14th admission date?

I love this school and want to be accepted so bad.

Applied to carroll school of management! I apologize for the awful format

Mid reach for CSOM, standardized tests and gpa would put you at the lower end of the spectrum for the business school stats. BC doesn’t care about weighted averages so a 3.39 and 30 ACT would most likely put you at a reach

Anyone else know?

Reach.

You seem pretty well accomplished but the 3.39 (I think their average admitted is 3.93 or 3.96) is the type of thing where they might not even keep reading to see the other stuff. Good luck though.
