<p>(Applied RD, debating changing to EDII but idk if its worth it because I do believe it's a reach)</p>
<p>You don’t tell us what you intend to major in, but as you know your CR+M score is at the very bottom of the middle 50%. Only 3 AP courses by graduation. Math courses aren’t the toughest. A killer essay could go a long way here, but you don’t mention one. ECs, meh.</p>
<p>I’m sorry but I’m not liking you for Lafayette. Maybe a 20% chance RD, but as you know from your baseball experience it ain’t over til it’s over.</p>

<p>shahikeshar and jerseykid96,</p>
<p>Thank you both for your interest in Lafayette. To help evaluate your chances of acceptance, please see the academic profile for the Class of 2017 here–> [Entering</a> Class Profile · About · Lafayette College](<a href=“http://www.lafayette.edu/about/lafayette-at-a-glance/entering-class-profile/]Entering”>http://www.lafayette.edu/about/lafayette-at-a-glance/entering-class-profile/)</p>
<p>Know that this profile only provides the “ball park range” and that there are no strict cutoffs for any academic statistic. This is because the application process is holistic and includes many factors other than GPA and standardized test scores such as course rigor (based on the context of your high school), extracurricular involvement, and other contributions to the community.</p>
<p>Academically speaking, this profile will give you decent feedback, but unfortunately I cannot provide you any further or more specific feedback, as I am not an admissions director. </p>
<p>Hopefully that helps. I’m sorry I cannot give you a more direct answer. If you have any other questions about Lafayette itself or the application process, you are always welcome to ask.</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
