Class of 2012 Boston College EA decisions

<p>tomorrow 10char</p>

<p>im on west coast and havent received anything…
Will someone chance me on whether i will get in?
Here are some quick facts: 2210 SAT, 4.2 weighted gpa, i attend a jesuit school, lots of EC including theater which is about 20 hours a week. over 100 hours of comm service. other stuff like that.</p>

<p>oh sorry and to add to the above, i was accepted into Michigan and Loyola Marymount University a few days ago. deferred at Tulane :(</p>

<p>I applied to the school of arts and science. i have a 4.56 gpa. I’ve take AP US History(, AP Language and Composition, AP Art History and AP Biology, scoring 4 on all exams. This year im taking ap spanish, ap ab calculus, ap government and ap literature. </p>

<p>I got a 2020 on the sats: 660 cr, 650 math, 710 writing.
Im also int he top 10 percent of my high school (highest decile).
what are my chances in getting into bc early action?!?!?!?!</p>

<p>Wow! So you’ll know if you get in based on the size of the envelope. Congrats on getting in. I hope I get a big envelope.</p>

<p>I’m from Bedford, a suburb of Boston. I recieved my acceptance letter yesterday from BC. I have a 3.4 (4.0 scale) unweighted gpa, have never taken an AP class, have taken a couple honors classes, and got a 2 on the only AP test I’ve ever taken (music theory). I’m not entirely sure how I got in, it was a huge reach, but they must really care about extra-curriculars and legacy. This is honestly a miracle, but I hope it gives hope to others out there for whom BC is a reach. Can’t wait to attend!</p>

<p>See, I live 15 miles away from BC- like SUPER close and I didn’t receive anything…a girl who lives a few blocks from me got her’s…so now I’m freaking out. Wish i could stay home and wait for the mail but my mother wont let me.</p>

<p>Wow that’s great. My gpa is a 90 (on a scale of 100) and I got a 2000 on the SAT. My school does not rank, they send out a grade distribution chart. I’ve taken 5 AP courses throughout highschool and all of my other classes are honors/ 1 is accelerated. My ECs include club swimming 18/hours a week, captain of my school’s varsity swim team, president of the young republicans club, volunteer at a nearby hospital, named an AP scholar and swimming conference all-star Junior year. Also a member of the Spanish National Honor Society and a two time silver medalist on the National Spanish Exam. Freshman year I was my homeroom’s campus ministry rep and the class of 2012 diversity rep.</p>

<p>Hooks: I am a duel citizen and speak Italain fluently (I had 2 first languages). I was baptized at St. Peters Basilica in the Vatican and I wrote my essay about how different parts of my religion and personality come from both my Italian and American roots. I am a legacy (mother graduated from BC). The BC swim coach said he had some pull and could help in admissions but I do not know how much help I am really receiving. I also had a close friend of the athletic director write a rec for me and a BC swimming album called the coach for me.</p>

<p>BC is by far my first choice so I’m waiting patiently for my letter! Hope its a big envelope…</p>

<p>Daughter received in mail today (Monday). We live on Long Island. It’s a big envelope. I think it means acceptance, but I’m not allowed to open. Does anybody know for sure what big envelope means?</p>

<p>It means acceptance</p>

<p>any idea about colorado?</p>
