<p>I've also Received a scouting/recruitment letter from Vassar for crosscountry, which I should send back with times shortly</p>

<p>Basically, I'm wondering if my extracurriculars+essay+SAT can outweigh my low gpa.</p>

<p>I wish I had those SATs, lol. You'd better get in :]</p>

<p>Thanks :) Bump.</p>

<p>Ooh, that's hard to say. I mean, you certainly are intellectually capable. I was sorta like you (SAT-wise), since I scored 2310 also (superscored, of course). :) By the way, I fully support Vassar, as I'm still in love with it. Nevertheless, I also advocate for Wesleyan. :) Try applying to Wesleyan also. Who knows? Also apply to UChicago if you're into the whole quirky feel of Vassar.</p>

<p>Yeah, Uchicago is definitely on my list - I'll check out wesleyan</p>
