<p>What do you think my chance are???? Would if benefit me to apply ED II instead of RD??</p>

<p>i dont know, seems kinda weak...</p>

<p>I'm on the crew team at Vassar, and you should definitely get in touch with Rod, the coach. He's great. We've had a handful of crew prospies this past semester, but they were mostly girls, only a few boys. If they want you, I'm pretty sure they can put a good word in at admissions for you.
And yeah, EDII would probably help, but only if you actually are really sure you want to go to vassar, and can convey why that is...</p>
