Colleges and Universities A-Z Kenyon College
1

<p>I am from Eastern Europe, moved here at the beginning of the freshman year, changed schools after freshman year, because of that I couldn't take many ap classes (diff requirements) and also it was hard to adjust to american school
female, white, live in CA right now</p>

<p>overall gpa(9-11) uw - 3.67
w - 3.85
overall gpa(10-11) uw- 3.67
w- 4.0
UC Gpa - 4.0</p>

<p>SATs:
SAT I - 630 V, 740 M, 680 W - 2050 total
again english is only my 3rd language, hence the low verbal score)
SAT II -
Bio E - 720
Chem - 680
Math 2 - 620 (will def retake, math is my strong subject, but at the day of the test my calc was weird and i didn't study at all so i wasn't ready at all)</p>

<p>Extracurriculars (very weak!)
- tennis club team all 3 years
40 hours volunteering freshman year
9th grade - pr officer of class of 2010
international club 10-11
all summers in eastern europe - i worked at my dad's office(10-11 grades)
love languages, fluent in 2, know english pretty well, learning 2 others, skipped spanish 4 because i did so well, try to practice with native spekers often
honors roll all 3 years
... can't think of more. I know they are very weak, but it was hard for me since my english isn't that good (considering accent especially), the way of life is totally different etc</p>

<p>Will it help if I apply early?</p>

<p>2050 on the SAT and fluent in 3 languages…hard to see you being turned away, applying early can help. It would also help to know if you are a US citizen, your class rank, and the type of school, but seriously I would bet on acceptance. Financial ability could also have some impact.</p>

3

<p>good public school in LA suburbs, won´t be applying for fin aid. Also, how do I tell them that I am fluent in 3 languages?</p>

4

<p>and i´m a permanent resident (have a green card)</p>

5

<p>bump</p>

<p>I would want to know about the fluency in languages too</p>

<p>I’m a current freshman at Kenyon and you definitely seem to fit in with the languages. Make sure you have killer application essays because this is a very writing/English oriented school.</p>
