<p>Your GPA and ACT are quite decent, what is most important is that you take the toughest course load. Do you have AP's under your belt already, with 4 or 5 scores?
Your volunteer work is quite impressive, so make sure to focus on that in your application. Reaching out is very important at Colby, it's a big part of the campus culture.
Have you interviewed yet?</p>
