<p>I got a 38,000 dollar scholarship (full) to Linden Hall, you could probably get one, too. I don’t know if I’m going to go. I’ve heard mostly good, but some really bad things, like that it’s not very diverse and that it’s way too small and that many people drop out quickly.</p>

<p>Here’s what I had:
Horseback riding for 4 years
Basketball for 2
Soccer for 5
Student Government for 2 (VP at my school, Leadership camp)
Volunteer work for less than 1 year (I volunteer 6 hours a week, but they didn’t know this because I started this program after I wrote my app)
Softball for 6 years (Captain on my school team)</p>

<p>SSATS:
Math: 99th percentile
Verbal: 97th
Reading: 95th
Total: 99th</p>

<p>I got the scholarship without even an interview which makes me think the school might not be so great.
I don’t know anything about Chatham Hall, sorry.</p>

<p>Hi, just found this thread.</p>

<p>I know Chatham hall is a really good school for riding, my friend went there for riding. It’s also pretty small, this might raise your chances? And honestly if you do really well on your SSATs, you might have a chance for a scholarship… You can always just gen financial aid though if you need it, I think they’ll accept you either way.</p>
