<p>Welcome, Luke! We’ll be applying this year. What major are you interested in?</p>

<p>We visited last summer and met with an engineering department representative.</p>

<p>She mentioned that they do look at strength of curriculum.</p>

<p>Your stats are very good, as well as your ECs.</p>

<p>If you can take any APs or Honors courses, if you haven’t already, that may help you as well.</p>

<p>We attend a Jesuit high school as well. Glad to see you want to continue your Jesuit education.</p>

<p>Take advantage of this forum. There are many helpful people, both students and parents, that are happy to share any info and answer any questions you have.</p>

<p>Good luck on your junior year!</p>
