Chance Me: Ivy League Schools

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello everyone. I am in the middle of my college application process and I am wondering what people think my chances are of getting accepted into one of the Ivy League schools I am applying to. So I'm sending out applications to Columbia, Harvard, Yale, and U Penn.<br>
Here are some of my stats: </p>

<p>ACT Score - 32 </p>

<p>Cumulative GPA - 4.1 </p>

<p>Extra-Curricular Activities: </p>

<p>Captain of Varsity Speech Team</p>

<p>Captain of Varsity Mock Trial Team</p>

<p>Editor for School Newspaper</p>

<p>LINK Crew Leader (program to help transition freshman/transfers into H.S.) </p>

<p>Campus Ministry (coordinator for school's fundraisers, drives, etc.) </p>

<p>Anti-Bullying Group </p>

<p>PPLP (Peer Positive Leadership Program) </p>

<p>Student Ambassador (working Open Houses, giving presentations, etc.) </p>

<p>Scholars Program (scholarly seminars throughout my 4 years and a large Capstone Project) </p>

<p>Lasallian Youth Service Work (weekly basis throughout my 4 years - tutoring inner-city children, working food shelves, volunteering at Feed My Starving Children) </p>

<p>Mission Trip to Anniston, Alabama (in conjunction with Habitat for Humanity during my junior spring break) </p>

<p>I have very strong letters of recommendation and I am attaching my Capstone Project to my application for both Harvard and Yale. Could someone please give me their advice/thoughts on my chances for any of these four schools?
Thanks so much!</p>

<p>What is your unweighted GPA?</p>

3

<p>Your GPA is a little low for ivy league, but with your ECs and really good essays you have a shot at getting in.</p>

4

<p>I don’t think his problem is his GPA, it is his ACT. Too low for IVY’s unless you are URM.</p>

5

<p>His ACT score could be improved, but it is within range for all ivies.</p>

<p>My unweighted GPA is 3.89. Thanks everyone!</p>
