I currently am in 11th grade but I am nervous and I don’t know if I should really expect myself to get into Tulane, my top choice school.
I’ve emailed my areas admissions officer because I can’t make a visit but I want to show interest.
So far my cumulative weighted gpa is 4.20, and I’m in ap Lang, ap bio, and apush this year. My extracurricular activity isn’t anything outstanding, but I did band 9-10th grade and this year I did color guard. Next year I will likely be the captain of the team. I currently volunteer at an animal shelter. My sat score is 1330, but I want to improve it this summer. On an act practice test, they estimated I will get a 30 on it but I will take that next week. I plan to take both tests again to improve, regardless of what I get. I’m from a smallish city in Florida (if that matters) and my grandma is from South Korea , which makes me partially Asian. (I don’t know if the previous 2 facts matter but I thought I should mention them). Also I’m like, poor , anyway so is probable that I could get into Tulane or is it foolish for me to try???
@iamanxioushelp Get that ACT up and continue to express lots of interest. Get some volunteer experience. Don’t worry about the things you can’t control like your parent’s income.
Keep up the good work, don’t get discouraged and also consider applying ED.
Thank you! Also I will definitely be applying ED … I just hope all of my grades/scores are good enough
