Chances at Georgetown?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I'm a white male who goes to a private Catholic school in New York and am planning on applying to Georgetown EA next fall.
SAT: 2130
Reading: 740
Math:680
Writing: 710</p>

<p>I haven't taken the SAT II's yet but I'm expecting scores in the 700's. </p>

<p>My unweighted GPA is a 3.9 and my weighted GPA is a 4.55.</p>

<p>I've taken honors classes at almost every chance (I took regular chemistry sophomore year). Freshman year I took four honors classes, sophomore year 4 and 1 AP, and Junior year 3 and 3 AP's.
Last year I took AP World History and received a 5. This year I'm taking AP US, AP Environmental, and AP Literature. Next year I'm planning on taking AP Gov, AP Bio, AP Span, and AP Calc AB. </p>

<p>I've run cross country and track since freshman year. I've been varsity since sophomore year. I'm pretty good and I earned second team all county, but nothing a national powerhouse like Georgetown would be interested in. </p>

<p>I'd like to assume that my recs will be superb as I know of a handful of teachers who think I'm a fantastic student. I'm assuming my essays will also be above average. I'm a really strong essay writer. </p>

<p>My extracurriculars won't be overly impressive.
Besides athletics which take up a lot of time, I'm vice president of the Indian culture club and will be president next year. I've also co-found a chairty club in my school that organizes service projects once or twice a month. I'm vice president this year and will be president next year. Sophomore year I was inducted into the Spanish Language Honors Society and this year I was inducted into NHS. I've also received a two awards from my school for high grades. </p>

<p>I'm not sure if this is important but both my parents graduated from Georgetown U. Other schools I'm looking at are Tufts, NYU, and UVA.</p>

<p>Thanks!!</p>

<p>Owing to legacy and respectable stats, Georgetown should be a match. If you are also certain you have compelling recs/essays, you should get in.</p>

<p>Tufts: Reach
NYU: Low match
UVA: Match
Georgetown: High match</p>

<p>I’d say Georgetown is a match especially if you’re a legacy. They won’t weigh it as much as say Vanderbilt, but they’ll give your app a second look, if anything. Tufts is a high match. UVA is a match and NYU is a low match bordering on safety.</p>

<p>Pretty good chances! Nice grades, sat scores a bit too low tho but if you have good recs and the rest of your app is ok, you’ll have a chance!</p>
