<p>I go to a school of about 1,400 students in Washington State. I'm looking to major in communications, specifically journalism.</p>

<p>SATs: (710 verbal, 620 m, 640 writing) I have retaken the SAT and expect my writing score to go up significantly. I Haven't taken SAT IIs yet but will probably get between 700-800 as I will pick ones that play to my strengths.</p>

<p>GPA: ~3.7 unweighted, every class is an IB class except Newspaper.</p>

<p>Extras:
2 years varsity basketball (junior, senior)
2 years varsity cross country (freshman, sophomore)
4 years varsity track</p>

<p>Paged twice for the state legislature, once for the house and once for the senate</p>

<p>Helped to raise $100,000 for a school play I was in to go to Edinburgh, Scotland to participate in the prestigious Fringe Festival</p>

<p>Was in a choir that went to Japan and Washington DC</p>

<p>3 years on the school paper, 1 year as a Copy Editor, 1 year as Editor-in-Chief</p>

<p>Attended Boys State as a junior, this mock government thing that you are nominated for held at a university </p>

<p>Won the schools writing award for a piece I submitted junior year</p>

<p>Various work experience and other ECs: worked on construction, workshops, etc.</p>

<p>Do I have a shot? Thanks!</p>

<p>we have no journalism major, just so you know.
and our communications studies major is highly competitive and you will be applying to it after a year or two here.</p>
