<p>I'm working on applications for the following colleges and I'm wondering what my chances are at these colleges:</p>

<p>Lafayette College
Oberlin College
WPI
Gettysburg College
Boston College
Lehigh University</p>

<p>Here are some info:

<p>Awards: AP scholar with distinction</p>

<p>The person who was proofreading my essays enjoyed reading them, so I guess that's a good sign.</p>

<p>So what are my chances?</p>

<p>I would say you have a good chance at all of them, but Oberlin is more of a stretch (your GPA is a little low, but they also don’t care only about grades, so you could still definitely get in).</p>

3

<p>Bump. Anyone else?</p>

<p>And what about my EC’s? Are they too thin?</p>

<p>Bump…</p>

<p>Hey, I think you’ve got a very good chance at Lehigh if your GPA goes up. Raising your GPA would make you a lot more competitive. Also, can you raise those test scores, even just a bit? To state the obvious, that would really help too lol. I think it’ll be a low reach/high match for BC. Don’t really know much about the others, sorry</p>

Gettysburg College - idk
Boston College - high match
Lehigh University - match</p>

<p>Oberlin and Boston College may be a bit tough to get into at this point (I wouldn’t say a reach, more of a high-match). The others shouldn’t be hard for you at all.</p>
