<p>Someone please tell me my chances!
Of getting into Marist
I have a 3.5 unweighted gpa and a 4.6 weighted gpa.
I'm ranked 112/295 in my school.
I was in nhs in my old school and I'm also in it in my new school.
I was also in the national art honor society in my old school. With over 100 hours of community service
I also have awards for having the highest grades in CPA chem, CPA geometry, CPA Art 1, and CPA art 3.
I haven't done any school sports but I did figure skating for 2 years in high school and 7 years total
I also did theater and art lessons out of school.
I was in the art club for 3 years, the lit club for 2, and now the environmental club.
and in total I scored about a 1700 on my SATs</p>
<p>I would say that there is a 90% chance of you getting in.</p>
<p>Elvina , what scientific method did you use to get to 90% chance? Marist acceptance rate last year was 31% and this students SAT scores are significantly below what the average accepted student was last year. I think it is possible this student gets in based on where they are from, how rigorous their H.S. courses are and any other thing that Admissions is looking for. Jazzy look at past threads from accepted students the last few years and see how you measure up to determine what your chances are.</p>
<p>There are super tough this year.
My daughter was accepted to Fordham and Providence.
She has been deferred to ED for Marist.
She has above the SAT requirement and over GPA of 94 above what they look for.
5 AP’s all honors…great EC’s…
I dont get it.</p>
<p>Sometimes they reject over qualified people bc they know they are not going to attend. If you are really serious about Marist, then go visit, write to admission and ask questions and visit their table at the college fairs. The more contacts you have with them, the higher your chances. Trust me!!
My son was accepted last year bc he did all of the above and his stats were not that high- 1830 SATs and 3.1 out of 4.0 GPA all honors classes and very rigorous and no APs.</p>
<p>Marist is not just looking at your grades. They are also looking at the activities you are part of, if you do community service, how much you participate in your school community and your interest in Marist. If you just apply to Marist and never visit campus, or contact the school, the admissions reps keep that in mind. If it is between two students who have about the same GPA and SATs and ACTs Marist will look into which student visited Marist or maybe emailed the school with a question. At Marist we do have a small acceptance rate, but we are getting students who want to be here.</p>
