Chance me (I'm actually on the bubble!)

<p>Everyone always says they're tired of seeing people who definitely could get in, so here's one who might not be able to!</p>

<p>I already applied early action, so I guess that gives me a little bit of an advantage? Anyways, here's the specs:</p>

GPA: Not positive yet, but probably around 3.6-3.7 UW
Class rank: 17/386
5 AP classes (4 on English Language, 5 on US History, taking Psych, Eng. Lang. and Euro this year)</p>

<p>ECs:
Key Club
Spanish Club
Book Club
Part-time job (12 hrs/week) at a Nursing home since Feb. '07</p>

<p>Awards:
Public Speaking
Personality</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You are NOT on the bubble for Fordham. The only thing I see that catches my eye is your CR score is great but your writing score is more modest and that seems like a disconnect....kids who score high in CR usually have a corresponding high writing score. Writing is very important at Fordham as you will write a lot of papers.</p>

<p>However, you are otherwise very much in high average area for Fordham and only "on the bubble" for potential merit aid, not admission.</p>

<p>My writing score was 710, the math was 510. Sorry if that kind of seemed confusing.</p>

<p>How does that affect your evaluation? How much aid could I get?</p>

<p>While we can't know what the EA standards will be, you are not on the bubble for admission based on the profile. Class</a> Profile</p>

<p>It's difficult enough to respond to chance me threads for admissions, let's not get started on financial aid award levels! Just be sure to apply, everyone's need is different and the available funding changes year to year, maybe more frequently.</p>

<p>Have you looked on the fordham.edu site for financial aid info?
