Chance me for Skidmore

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everybody!</p>

<p>I am applying ED2 to Skidmore, please can someone chance me:-</p>

<p>International seeking financial aid</p>

<p>SAT Score - 2150 ( M 700, W 720, CR 730 )</p>

<p>GPA - Don't know the exact American equivalent GPA but Colleges have calculated from 3.87 to 4.00</p>

<p>Extracurricular - </p>

<p>A highly successful regional level literacy campaign</p>

<p>Very popular student leader and won the presidential election handsomely so controlled all most all the clubs and presidential positions a student can control in school.</p>

<p>A youth wing leader and youngest elected member of my society's resident welfare association</p>

<p>Essays - Rather long but wrote them straight from my heart. ( <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-essays/1429340-my-essay-too-long-will-have-adverse-affect.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-essays/1429340-my-essay-too-long-will-have-adverse-affect.html&lt;/a> )</p>

<p>So what could be my chances? If possible also chance me for Colgate, Trinity, Rhodes, Hamilton, Swarthmore, Middlebury, University of Richmond.</p>

<p>You will get into Skidmore. Low Match
Colgate- High Match
Trinity- High Match
Rhodes- Match
Hamilton- Reach
Swarthmore- Reach
Middlebury- Reach
Richmond- Match</p>

<p>I am sorry but I do not the meaning of " High match " and " low match "?</p>

<p>Are " reaches " completely out of reach…</p>

<p>I agreew with the above post completely, the only problem I see for you with schools is Hamilton, Swarthmore, and Middlebury. The rest you are a great applicant!</p>

<p>Thanks mates!</p>

<p>A low match is a place where acceptance is likely, but not exactly like a safety, while a high match is more likely to get into than a reach but less than a match.</p>

<p>Skidmore: Low match (good use of ED)
Middlebury: Reach
Swarthmore: Reach
Hamilton: Reach
Colgate: High match
Trinity: Match
Rhodes: Low match
Richmond: Match</p>

<p>you’ll get in probablly to colgate,skidmore, trinity and hamilton…swarthmore is way more competitive and since you are an international chances are lower but not impossible</p>

<p>Thanks man, I’ll be more than happy to get into Skidmore, Trinity, Rhodes and Hamilton… :)</p>
