Chances at a few LAC's: heeelp!

Applying to College
1

<p>Hey - </p>

<p>I'm trying to decide on a school that will gve me a good amount of academic freedom. Do I have any chance at any of these? Are there any other colleges with close to open curriculums I should consider? </p>

<p>Also, I intend to go for an interview all of these places, if that helps at all. </p>

<p>BTW, I have a few AP grades... </p>

<p>AP US History - 5
AP US Gov & Politics - 5
AP European History - 4
AP English Language -4
AP English Literature - 5 </p>

<p>Colorado College </p>

<p>Lewis & Clark College (not quite open curriculum, but it's a very small core) </p>

<p>New College of Florida </p>

<p>New York University (Gallatin school... probably no chance) </p>

<p>Pitzer College (again, there's a distribution requirement, but it's small) </p>

<p>University of California-Santa Cruz (I don't think I even qualify for the UC system, do I? :P) </p>

<p>University of Rochester (HAHA, yeah right...) </p>

<p>Whitman College (I'm hoping that being from the East Coast will help me a bit here... that and the ineterview..) </p>

<p>Should I just go somewhere else and try to transfer? Or do any of you think I'd havea chance any of these places? I have some really good extracurriculars, BTW, and I'm a senior planning on taking a gap year, although I realize that could hurt my chances. Still, I DO have some really good senior year grades in multiple AP courses....</p>

<p>Based on your AP scores, I think you are more than qualified to get into any of the colleges that you've mentioned. I took AP Euro before, and 4 in AP Euro is a good score. Maybe even some ivy-league schools could let you in (assuming that your grade in AP classes matches your scores)</p>
