Chances for my DD

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>SAT 2070 (Writing 740 Verbal 720 Math 610), ACT 28 </p>

<p>GPA 3.66 after junior year- College preparatory private parochial school. They do not rank students</p>

<p>In top 50,000 of PSAT (208 on PSAT)</p>

<p>EC's </p>

<p>Stage crew for plays and choir
Acting parts in plays
Civil rights/anti-predjudice educational group (go out to schools to educate on diversity) but she is a Caucasian female
Volunteering in nursing home, also in an organization geared toward helping minority women seeking employment. </p>

<p>Curriculum at the school is pretty fixed towards college prep but the only problem I see is that she took no AP's although she did take the more advanced math courses offered. As electives she took several acting, art, and English courses because her interests are more artistic/literary. </p>

<p>Her top choices as of now:</p>

<p>Oberlin
Kenyon
Hiram (considering)
Antioch (considering)</p>

<p>Does anyone know anything about a school called Spring Hill in Mobile Alabama?</p>

<p>With these stats would she be likely to receive merit aid? I doubt we qualify for financial aid but these schools are out of our league otherwise. I'm wondering if we should focus on schools where she is more likely to receive merit aid and if so any suggestions?</p>

<p>She has some good STATS. I think she should go for Oberlin and Kenyon, and apply to EVEN more top schools. I have never heard of Hiram so I don't know about that, and I have only heard the name Antioch before but don't know anything about the school. For merit aid, she should apply and I have heard that you are never supposed to accept a first offer - there are ways to get the money that you need.</p>
