<p>Thanks!!!</p>

5

<p>ya…I’d say you’ve got a pretty good shot! Low match, but you never know!</p>

6

<p>great chance and great school!</p>

<p>Awesome! Thanks!</p>

<p>From what I know about U of Richmond you have an excellent chance of getting accepted. It doesn’t matter that your school doesn’t weigh grades, because admissions un-weighs the grades anyway and uses their own scale. (This is what Admissions rep told us.) So your AP / honors courses would be accounted for. You have solid test scores and solid / consistent ECs. I will bet you are in with some merit aid.</p>

<p>Also, I don’t think you are a “low” match. Your stats and total package are solid. I would be surprised if you weren’t accepted…of course, some of it is a crap shoot, so you never know.</p>

<p>Thanks! Do you know what kind of need based aid Richmond would give along with any merit money I might be eligible for?</p>

10

<p>Richmond says that they will meet 100% demonstrated need.</p>

11

<p>Yup, Richmond is full need, did you apply to scholars?</p>

12

<p>No, I didn’t because I applied ED to Washington U in St. Louis and then got rejected. Maybe I can get a presidential scholarship?</p>

13

<p>Seems like a match. You have a great ACT score and great extra-curriculars. Your GPA is a tad low for Richmond but your courseload definitely makes up for that. Good luck!</p>
