I am a junior in highschool at one of the top 20 all-girls schools in the US, and I am I am wondering what my chances are for applying ED to Wash U. What do you think my chances of getting in are (at this point)? Here are my scores, classes, extra-curriculars, etc.:

GPA: 4.3 (out of possible 4.6 weighted) / 4.0 unweighted

ACT: 32 (I took the ACT twice, and I am planning to retake it and am hoping for a 33)

Subject tests: I took two subjects tests, but I have no received my results yet.

Classes: I would have taken 8 honors classes and 5 APS by the time I graduate. (Honors geometry, honors Algebra 2, honors PreCalc, honors Spanish 3, honors Spanish 4, honors chemistry, honors physics, honors international relations & AP biology, AP Calc, AP Literature and AP computer science) I also took the required English and History courses but not always at the honors level.

Extra-curriculars: Volunteer as a tutor for lower-income children twice a week, Russian language lessons to learn how to read and write in Russian, Global Scholars program, started my own eBay business, business and finance program, volunteer for a local breast cancer organization, leadership academy, business summer internship, cashier at target, gold key club (ambassador for my school), started my own club at school called “around the world”, babysit, BBYO (Jewish Youth Organization), Volleyball, Pre-collage summer program, service trip to Nicaragua.

I will not be applying for financial aid

I want to go into a business related field.

It would be great if you had any tips!!

Thanks!

I think you have a pretty good chance of getting in ED

First of all, *pre-college. You wouldn’t want to make that mistake on your app! Also, the service trip signifies privilege. There are a lot of people who are applying to college (whether or not they need FA) that cannot afford financially or time wise to go on those trips. In fact, a lot of colleges (UC Berkeley is a popular example) have trained their admissions officers to not be impressed by these “trips.” But put it on there if you want.

Other than that, your profile looks fine. You can choose whether or not to take the ACT again, but even if your score does not change, it’ll be fine. I think you have a good shot of getting in ED, just nail your essays. Best of luck.
