<p>Well, you are looking good (match to slight reach) for admittance to WUSL ED--especially if you only submit the ACT scores instead of the SAT Is (although I don't know if you can do that since you have to submit the SAT IIs). Also, make sure you play up that Siemens competition (and any awards)</p>

<p>I'm not quite sure about your scholarship chances, though. WUSL ranks as tied with UPenn for 6th toughest to get into among national universities--and I don't see them giving you much scholarship money--although I do think they will give you a very nice financial aid package if you need one. They are known for giving good financial aid packages to those needing them, while charging a lot of fees (as a way of balancing the costs) for who don't need help with the finances.</p>
