<p>I would say he has a good shot. My D had a better CR score (by quite a bit), but her unweighted GPA (competitive private HS) was a bit lower (3.5). Same ACT score. She also gave them geographic diversity (MN), but being a boy is also a boost in today’s admissions environment. His ECs look strong, too. D got in with a Benjamin Rush Scholarship, so I think your son stands a good chance of being admitted. A good interview would help him (helped my D, I think, gave her the boost from stats that weren’t fantasitc to get that scholarship). Good luck!</p>
