<p>Good GPA, good religious volunteer work, great soccer background (do you plan to play at Santa Clara?--they will consider this given their soccer team's importance relative to other sports at the school). Tough courseload.</p>

<p>I'd say try to get the SATs into the 600+ range, get the President or VP job at the Interact club and spend a few more hours on the volunteer work and you'll have no problem. Also, see if there is any way to get leadership with the soccer team on the resume (#1 in state is already very impressive).</p>

<p>Personally I think with 600+ on the SATs and two SAT IIs in the 630+ range, you will be a lock at Santa Clara--and a safe match to match at Boston University.</p>

<p>You have a way higher chance if you ED a school like SC because they are really trying to up yield. They also really want to add non W. Coast kids. If you are a full payer from E. Coast I think you have a good shot ED.</p>
