Chance me?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Whitman College

I love Whitman and didn’t apply ED, but am really hoping to get in. Could anyone please give me my chances?
I go to a very rigorous private, Jesuit school and have a 3.75 post-9th grade gpa (unweighted.) I had undiagnosed add in 9th grade, so my freshman grades were much lower.

My test scores were ACT: 34 composite; SAT math 750; SAT verbal 750, and SAT writing 730.

I have done a lot of community service work, especially volunteering at an elementary school for at-risk kids in my home town and holding several leadership positions in my school (Peer mentor, retreat leader, etc.)

I’ve worked as an assistant counselor in the summers at a kids sleep-away camp. I play the drums and also play sports (but not varsity.)

Thanks!

I think you sound perfect for Whitman. Best of luck!

Whitman sounds like a safety/low match for you.

Agree with 123wombat (although I generally think chancing on any of the CC Top LACs is a crapshoot), but do make sure you continue to demonstrate interest by making sure that you open every email from the college, click on the relevant links in those emails, and (if you haven’t already) log in and change the default password on your portal.

Not a safety, but definitely a likely match.
