<p>Hello all. I just posted a similar thread asking for chances for Boston College, so I'm doing the same but for Villanova, Fordham, and Holy Cross. I recently went to Nova's Open House and Holy's Open House. I will be going to Fordham's Open House in a few weeks. Anyway, PLEASE CHANCE ME! I'm a white female junior from a mediocre public school in NJ planning to apply (Early Action to Fordham and Nova) in 2015. I am not legacy or a recruited athlete. <em>Not including estimates for senior year</em>
GPA: 100.0625 (no 4.0 scale)
Class Rank: 4/360
ACT: hoping for a 29 superscored (my weak spot is testing) 29 is my guaranteed score from a prep class, but I'm reluctant
Subject Tests: taking US history Nov. 8th
Will have taken 4 APs by the end of junior year: US History (4), Gov and Politics, Statistics, Macroeconomics

<p>Thank you!
I plan to double major in Poli Sci and a business related field if that helps anything. Also, my recommendations should be very strong, as well my essays. I <em>think</em> I have an interesting story.</p>
