<p>there's more, but i honestly don't feel like typing the rest nor do i assume you want to read it. haha
those are the major things. I know my SATs are low, but i'm trying to bank on my EC's and audition to get me in. What do you guys think?</p>

academically.
HOWEVER...I was in frost the first semester and their jazz program is wicked good :) and unfortunately very fierce to get into. But it's not impossible. Just do as well as you can do at your audition and wait. That's all you can really do, that's all I did!</p>
<p>Your academic record is strong enough for a Frost student, but I don't think your chances are very high if you aren't accepted into Frost and want to enroll as a non-music major. Your rank, while good, needs the help of high 1200-1300 SAT to carry you academically.
Good luck.</p>
