Demographic: 16 Male, Born in Africa, raised in England and now live in Maryland. Spent greater part of my childhood traveling and still travel now with my father working for the WBG. Applying ED to GWU**
Special Details:
I am graduating a year early from high school at the end of my junior year. I have exceeded graduation requirements through dual enrollment courses at my local community college. I am pursuing early graduation because of the severe limitations that my school puts on my course selection as well as the negative atmosphere. I plan on majoring in Political Science or International Relations and becoming a Political FSO after I obtain citizenship and my degree.

I plan on continuing classes at my local community college throughout the school year to hopefully bolster my academics. Currently, my unofficial transcript at the local community college has my GPA at 4.0 but I have only completed 1 class so far. Sorry for the long post but GWU (ED) is my dream school and after tours and speaking to my admissions officer I wanted to get some other opinions on my chance of acceptance.
