<p>Even if your scores were less than perfect, it’s fine. It’s a test-optional school anyway. (I decided not to send my scores … They were horrendous haha) Your GPA is a tiny bit under the average GPA, but I think you definitely have a shot considering that you have two legacies and you’re a minority. Your current senior grades seem pretty good and they like to see an active participant in the school and community. I think you have a fair shot! Good luck!</p>

<p>I’m currently a freshman at HC.</p>

<p>I think you will get in.</p>

<p>Me too. Having siblings at the school (especially at a catholic school, at least based on my experience with Georgetown and Notre Dame) should really help. Plus, your ranks/qual’s indicate that you will succeed there even if they are not tip-top for HC. Good luck!</p>
