Chances Syracuse, TCU, and Penn State

Chance Me / Match Me!

Hi, I was wondering if I have any chance of getting into these schools.

I have a 28 ACT (hope to improve before January)

I have an 83 average unweighted in my classes. I attend a very rigorous college preparatory school. I take many AP’s and have taken very rigorous class work. I receive a scholarship at my school for achievement.

I have a leadership position, alongside being active in many clubs involving math and politics.

I compete in science competitions and participate in YMCA youth legislature.

I am on the varsity soccer team and have 2 varsity letters.

I’ve been interning with a local organization that aides seniors and ran their charity golf tournament over the summer.

I have a solid essay providing insight on a traumatic childhood, as well as explain why my grades have been low recently.

I am Latino.

To me, your scores look good for Syracuse and I have friends with similar stats at Penn State. I don’t know much about TCU so I can’t be much help there

Anyone else know anything on either Syracuse or TCU?

I go to TCU, and it is a rigorous school. I cautiously say your stats are most likely sufficient for getting in and a little bit of scholarship if you have good essays but perhaps not for big amounts of scholarship. Let me know if you have any more specific Q’s about TCU!
