<p>@12345n - Vassar doesn’t give merit scholarships, so there’s that. Your test scores are within range of being accepted, but definitely not a slam dunk. By not applying for financial aid, I assume that means you can afford full price?</p>

<p>@stepay yup thanks :slight_smile: I will be paying full price. That’s weird though because the admissions rep who visited said that if my IB score is in the 40s, I will automatically be considered for one as all students are when they send their application.</p>

<p>You have absolutely nothing to keep you out, and a lot to get you in.</p>

<p>@merc81 wow thank you so much haha this made my day :slight_smile: I just gotta keep my fingers crossed now.</p>

<p>@12345n: If you get in, you’ve earned it. Wishing you success.</p>

<p>@merc81 thank you haha it means a lot :slight_smile: Are you a student?</p>
