Chance me Emma Willard.

Prep School Admissions Prep School Chances

<p>I need FA and/or scholarships. Emma will be the only school i'm applying to, it's make it or break it. If I don't get enough FA/schorlarships for Emma, I will just finish out high school at the public school i'm at now. Emma Willard is my dream school and I would do anything to attend, though. I'm applying as a repeat junior.</p>

<p>Advanced math: high 80s to low 90s....I admit, math is not my strongest point.
Honors bio and honors chem: high 80s with bio, high 80s/low 90s with chem (both teachers have been very hard graders-kids with 90s are revered).
4 years of spanish: all mid/high 90s
AP European history: high 90s
Honors global 9: high 90s
Honors English (9th and 10th grade): mid to high 90s</p>

<p>Not sure of my overall GPA but my overall average is a 93-95 (i think this is weighted but i'm not sure). My school won't give GPAs until senior year for reasons unknown to the student body.</p>

<p>SAT (taken as a sophomore):
680 CR
620 Math
630 Writing
It was a 1930 overall, 1300 CR and M.
I plan to take them over again in the spring as well as the ACT.</p>

<p>At school I'm involved in ski club, leadership team, model UN, link crew, and foreign language club.
Out of school I irish dance, fence, and do recreational gymnastics.
Last summer I was a People to People Student Ambassador.
I volunteer at Children's Hospital, as a spotlighter at a local theater, and with the elementary school's talent show.
I'm a camp counselor.
I also run my school's Relay For Life team.</p>

<p>I know you guys aren't used to chancing anything but HADES schools. But do you think I have a chance of getting in WITH financial aid and/or scholarships?</p>

<p>you definitely have a chance (and that’s pretty much the most i can say, aha). scholarships/FA aren’t too uncommon at EW, asiankid29 got in with full FA (she’s heading to exeter, though). your SATs are strong, so that’s a nice bonus. :smiley:
good luck!</p>

<p>your chances would be a lot lower if you were a boy</p>

<p>@DiveAlive: thanks! i’m hoping!</p>

<p>@tennisgeek1: hahaha, i lol’d when I read that.</p>

5

<p>Just out of interest (and because i’m getting sucked into all this HADES and bs in general stuff), will you guys chance me for Andover, Hotchkiss, Deerfield, and NMH?</p>

6

<p>oh and i don’t know if this means anything, but my schedule this year is: Spanish 4 advanced, AP US History, AP English, Precalc, and AP Chem.</p>

7

<p>well you did wait for a while</p>

<p>I’m applying for Emma Willard too, as a repeat sophomore (: It sounds like an amazing school, I’m excited! I really don’t know much about chancing people but it looks like you have great stats.</p>

<p>thanks. =]
and yeah it looks so amazing! It’s still my first choice and I really, really want to go. That would be really awesome if we both ended up at Emma. Have you visited/do you plan to visit?
I need to talk to my mom but I really want to visit. I figured if I went on a day that my school has parent-teacher conferences versus. columbus day or something, it will be easier to get an interview.</p>

<p>I haven’t visited yet, but hopefully I’ll be able to. I’ve heard the campus is incredible.</p>
