<p>Your stats look ok. Vandy does not look at the writing portion of the SAT and a 1440 fits well. Your ACT is outside the 25/75 range so they should consider the SAT as your better test mark. Your EC’s look good. As 50% Indian, you qualify as a URM which will help. You should consider talking to the cross country coach, this could only help. Depending on other assets a family income in the range you indicate should get a decent financial package. Vandy has become difficult to predict and many qualified candidates get turned down. If you think Vandy is a good fit for you, then you should apply as I think you have a good chance of getting in. Vanderbilt really is a great school. Best of Luck!</p>
