Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Richmond

Hi all, I just wanted some opinions on whether it would be worth it for me to apply ED II to UR:

GPA: 96.1/100
ACT: 26 Composite, Science 24, Reading 24, Math 27, English 30
I will have taken 7 AP’s total

EC’s:
-Co-President of Student Council
-Co-President of Model UN (Served as vice-pres junior year)
-Student representative to the school board
-Competitive Swimmer- Varsity Athlete- serves as team leader
-National Honors Society- Community Service through this
-Spanish National Honors Society

  • Leadership Internship with Teacher
  • Summer Lifeguard with both Redcross and Ellis Certifications
  • Link Crew Leader

Awards:

  • Student of the Month Award
  • Academic Achievement award for Spanish
    -AP Scholar with Honors

I feel my essays are solid and trust my teachers who wrote my rec letters

My biggest worry is my ACT score. I feel that it does not align with my academic ability at all.

Thoughts?

Hi, @barb4567 ! I am a current student at UofR. I think you should totally go for EDII at the university. Scores and stats are not the only thing that the university considers! It seems like you have very strong extracurriculars and that is super important at UofR. Maybe consider interviewing and showing interest to boost your application. Best of luck!
