i think you have a great chances at every college other then villanova
You have a good chance with laf. You demonstrate leadership. I had a 4.11 but lower test scores than you and I got in. Show them your strong essays and you will be great!
@lazaruseproject thanks! Do you know a lot about these schools to say that?
Your stats look great! Are you planning to take the ACT again? A higher score will only increase your chances of getting in. You have great ECs and demonstrate leadership well. You have a good chance at Fordham and Bucknell (higher ACT will help for sure). Good luck!
Chance me back? http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1797307-chance-me-for-umich-msu-and-few-oos-will-chance-back.html#latest
Thanks!
Yea i dont know much but you seem fine i believe tho a higher act score would almost guarantee admission.
would you mind chancing me
Those look great for every school except Bucknell. You need a higher SAT/ACT though. IF you got that, you would e guaranteed admission. Please chance back!
get some nice essays you should have no prob getting into almost every school there might be 1 but the rest you should be good
@lazaruseproject @syrazen @queenelmundo @ibraheem2 @Howardyuan @pearmetty thanks for the chances guys! I chanced everyone back who had a post. One last question, do I have any shot at Boston College? Thanks!
Probably not due to a low act
There middle 50% is 30-34 act
Applying wouldn’t hurt tho there’s always a chance
Btw u didn’t chance my thread
It’s called chance me
Holy Cross: high/match
Providence: match
Fordham: high/match
Villanova: low reach
Bucknell: low reach
Lafayette: high match/low reach
Boston U: low reach
You have a decent shot at all of these schools! I would try to get your ACT up to at least a 30. Also, I would try to improve your GPA to a 3.9 if you can because it would really help your chances even more. By doing these two steps, you’re reaches might turn into high matches. Your ECs and volunteer work look impressive!! As long as you get your GPA and ACT up, I don’t think you will have too much of problem getting into most (if not all) of the colleges on your list. Good luck!!
Chance me back please??

@LionKing2398 Thanks for the feedback!!!
I would say
Holy Cross: match/safety
Providence: match/safety
Fordham: match/safety
Villanova: match (might be a bit uninformed here, since Nova may be biased to our school due to the fact that we are literally a minute away from them according to google maps)
Bucknell: low reach
Lafayette: match
Boston U: match
The weakest part of your application is your standardized testing. If you get that up, you’ll probably be a shoo-in at all of these colleges. Also, do you have AP scores?
Please Chance me back:

@TToDSkeith I am re-taking the ACT in the fall so hopefully it’ll go up. I don’t have any AP scores from junior year. Also my course load for senior year is pretty rigorous.
