Colleges & Universities A-Z Harvey Mudd College

<p>Hello,
Here is my profile... it would be helpful if you could tell me what chances I have for Harvey Mudd... :D </p>

<p>I am a Japanese female living in Japan.
I go to an international school called Canadian Academy (NOT a Canadian school... the people who found it were apparently Canadian...) I heard that the admissions people like my school or something... There's also an alumi from my high school that just graduated from Mudd. (class of 2007) And Dr. Asai said that he was one of the best students of his class or something...
I am full IB diploma candidate (I take 4 HLs and 2 SLs):
IB HL English
IB HL Biology
IB HL Math
IB HL Chemistry
IB SL Economics
IB SL Japanese (I got a 7 on the exam which is the highest score on the IB scale)
Online course for Physics (University of Nebraska)
My unweighted GPA is 3.75 (i little low... i know... :( )
My TOEFL iBT score was 111 out of 120 (I think this is a pretty good score...)
My SAT II Biology was 700, and I took Math II, but I still don't know my score. I'm taking the SAT for reasoning again in November. (I already took it, but I have A LOT to improve!)</p>

<p>My extra curricular activities that I wrote on my application are:
Big Brother Big Sister (3 years)
Science Club (founder, president, 2 years)
National Honor Society (Recycling committee president, 3 years)
Flamenco (Spanish dance, 4 years)
Drama productions (Female lead role, 4 years)
Back stage for school productions (3 years)
Cooking class (Teacher, 4 years)</p>

<p>My work experiences are:
2 years of teaching Japanese high schoolers English
Dramatic reading of diaries of the victims of the Great Hanshin Earthquake at Kobe University</p>

<p>Summer:
College Discovery at UCLA summer before my junior year
People to People Leadership Summit at Stanford (Medical summit)</p>

<p>I think I have good recommendation letters... and I'm not applying for financial aid, and I'm applying as Early Decision (I already sent my applications. I know the deadline is like next month, but I just wanted to be on top of everything..). My counselor said that I had pretty good essays. </p>

<p>I went for an interview in March during my spring break, and I slept over at the campus, and I HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME! I met with Mr. Temkin, Dr. Asai and Dr. Daub. :) The students were sooo nice!!! </p>

<p>I know that Harvey Mudd is TOTALLY my reach school, but I just love it there! The education, professors, and the people are just amazing!!! Please tell me what chances I have (if any...) Please be honest. :D
Thank you so much! :)</p>

<p>You have good stats (from what is posted... though I don't see any SATs) and as an added bonus you are female. I know the latter should not matter but in the case for admissions at Mudd it does make a difference, like it or not.</p>

<p>I'd say with 75% confidence that you are in. Mudd looks for people who have genuine interest and show promise in not only their technical studies but in contributing to humanity as well. </p>

<p>Good job and no matter what happens you are still a hell of an applicant...</p>

<p>Thank you so much rocketDA! So are there not a lot of girls at Mudd? I mean thats what I see in the male/female ratio, but is that still visible as a student there?
I already sent in my application for ED, and I'm soooo nervous! I hate waiting! (but I guess its part of the experience....haha) But seriously, I fell in love with Mudd the first time I went there! I LOVE MUDD! <3 </p>

<p>What do other people think about my acceptance? Do I have a chance????</p>

<p>Some Japanese competition! haha. I go to school in Japan and am also applying early. Maybe we'll see each other next fall! =D</p>

5

<p>oh thats so cool! which school do you go to? haha maybe you came to my school for a game or something! :D
Ireade, did you take the TOEFL or did you just stick with your SAT scores?</p>

<p>Chotto... wakalimasen demo anata no ko-ko- no kulasu sukedualu to graido wa totemo ee desu.</p>

<p>Yes, my Japanese sucks.</p>

<p>Acceptance, but no scholarship, I think,,, though it depends on your SAT scores.</p>

<p>haha nice Japanese, sishu7! thanks! I actually take other IB courses as well but I guess that won't hurt me... yah, I'm not applying for financial aid... </p>

<p>Are there any other opinions out there? :D</p>
