<p>You seem to be a good candidate for admissions to me, but of course nobody here can really say what will happen…</p>

<p>If finances are a potential issue for you and/or your family at all, and ED application will not be your best bet as you will have no basis for comparison of costs of different schools and you really will not know your final financial aid package until later on… However, if your family is in a position to handle the price tag for a Barnard education, your stats seem to me to probably place you in a pretty good position to benefit from an ED application…</p>
