<p>you will probably get in.
they definitely favor in state kids though so make sure you write an essay that sets you apart.</p>

<p>try to focus your application on one or a few things that you are passionate about.</p>

<p>you might want to leave off things like “counselor” or make it more specific because counselor does not add anything to the application to make it memorable.</p>

<p>were you a camp counselor? a guidance counselor? </p>

<p>if you do that and write a good essay i would say you are definitely in</p>
