<p>Hi guys, I've become really interested in Georgetown lately, specifically the Walsh School of Foreign Service. I'm interested in pursuing a career in government/politics/diplomacy etc., and it seems like an ideal place to be for that sort of thing. Can anyone tell me what they think my chances of acceptance are?</p>

<p>Some basic info: white male, upstate NY, income bracket of ~$150k, public hs is regarded as one of the best in the region.</p>

<p>GPA 3.9 UW (my school doesn't weight GPA so I have no idea what it is weighted, 42 in a class of 321 - top 13%)
SAT 2080 (740 CR, 660 M, 680 W)
SAT II: USH 770, Lit 710, Math 1 670
33 ACT (35 English, 32 Math, 32 Reading, 31 Science)</p>

<p>APs:
World History 4
US History 5
English Language/Comp 5
English Lit/Comp (senior year)
Government (senior year)
Psychology (senior year)
Statistics (senior year)</p>

<p>ECs/volunteering/other stuff:
-Editor-in-Chief of student newspaper for two years, was Entertainment Editor as a sophomore and involved as a freshman. Won a national award for a piece I wrote this year
-Involvement in Student Government all four years, getting a higher level position next year too
-Mock Trial as a freshman and sophomore (disbanded but regional champions)
-Self-published a novel a couple years ago, have promoted it at local community events

<p>Submit yout ACT rather than your SAT, plus those SAT subjects.
What language(s) do you have AP’s in, or at least Level 4 that you’re not a natie speaker of?
If you’re a native/heritage speaker of a language, what is it?
Can you take AP Econ instead of AP Psych? (And if you can take a language AP you haven’t taken yet, you should).
Right now, it’s a HUGE reach, unless some things aren’t apparent in the original post (junior year abroad, bilingual, TNC internship, etc.)
American is within reach and GWU is more possible than Georgetown but still unlikely.</p>

<p>But doesn’t Georgetown require you to submit your entire testing history? I’ve taken Spanish through Level 4 btw.</p>
