<p>I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff, but what the hell. Probably going to apply Early Decision to Cornell, but might investigate Brown or UPenn for ED. Who knows? Any imput would be fantastic!</p>
<p>Regardless of which college you want to apply to, I wouldn't put the "Invited to Nat'l Youth Leadership Conferences" just because it's pretty easy to get invited to them and it's not that special. </p>
<p>Also, try to get some leadership positions in your clubs if it's still possible. So far, the only leadership position you have is captain of the V. Hockey team - and while that's impressive, joining many clubs but not showing leadership is not that great.</p>
<p>I am looking to apply to the college of Arts and Sciences while studying either Political Science or Religious studies, or both. As for leadership, I am a really big leader of Campus Ministry, planning meetings and events/retreats. I also am the president of my class' Spirit Week committee too. However, I will try to get some more leadership opportunities in my clubs. Does the Leadership Scholarship to Wells College help in that category?</p>
<p>I also forgot to mention that I have been an upperclass mentor for freshman for two years, along with being a student ambassador for my school which entails going to middle schools and recruiting/advertising the school.</p>
<p>I think academically you are excellent, but quite frankly your extracurriculars are a bit average to bellow average. Nonetheless, I think that ED will help your case and if you get good recs/essays I think that will also balance things out as well. Also, Penn is big on ED so if you go ED there you'll have a better chance of acceptance and Brown is a bit sporadic based on acceptance threads.</p>
