chances for honors college?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Emerson College

hi, i was just wondering what my chances for the honors college were as I saw a lot of people got accepted EA/ED. My stats are:
3.91 weighted gpa (School doesnt report unweighted)
1320 SAT
4 APs
top 7% class rank (89/1207, crazy big school)
featured columnist in newspaper
film club and broadcast comm club
200+ community service at library
script supervisor on indie film
leader and solo guitarist at community orchestra
string ensemble member
private guitar lessons
NHS and French NHS
peer mentor and k-5 mentor/tutor
HS early admit student through local 4-year university (Took several courses, got 4.0s, not enough to be considered a transfer)
2nd place architecture competition
prom committee

I attend a cyber-charter school so my experience is a little different than traditional HS and I dont have the same opportunities available to me that some high schools do. Since I’m a writer and write a lot i feel that my essays were fairly good, my common app essay was a little artistic/risky and i took a different approach on the honors college essay. any feedback is appreciated. thank you!!

My daughter did not get in to honors last year. 3.85 UW, 4.25W, 1450 SAT and 8 ap’s, good EC’s. so she never really considered Emerson, she loved the school that loved her back.

@Akqj10 Thanks for your response! Emerson will probably be unaffordable without honors, but I will see what happens.

In all fairness, Emerson was not one of her first choices, so that may have come across in her essay. Also she was stronger in Math than English. That being said, I believe only 50 get in, so it’s pretty competitive. Good luck, this time of year is pretty stressful waiting for the decisions.

@Akqj10 thank you! I felt my essay took a unique take and was fairly strong so I’ll see what happens. My english was way higher than my math (730/590) so hopefully that helps.
