<p>I'm applying to Middlebury College ED, so could I get chances for that please?</p>

<p>I think you have an excellent chance at getting into Middlebury College ED. You have great rigor in your secondary school courses, and stellar EC’s. </p>

<p>The SAT and ACT are very good, but will not be a deciding factor when admitting you. Honestly, being at a great high school usually correlates some acceptances to these top notch schools, so I’d estimate your chances at very good. I’d be surprised if you didn’t get in, and if you didn’t, you should at least get deferred. </p>

<p>Chances with Bowdoin are just as good or even better than Middlebury. </p>

<p>Rice is a match, and even more so with legacy status. </p>

<p>UF can be considered a safety. lol. Most of us Florida CC users consider it one anyway. </p>

<p>Chance back?

<p>All I know is UF, but you’re Pretty much in. If there’s any way you can raise your gpa, then it’s very very likely that they accept you.</p>
