*I have demonstrated a lot of interest by emailing the admissions office. They frequently email me and send me brochures and whatnot (though they probably do to a lot of people)

I don’t know what my major will be, but right now, I’m leaning towards journalism or something in the English field. I WILL BE APPLYING EARLY DECISION!

The 2 I got in AP World makes me really nervous. I’m scared if I don’t do good on my other APs. I emailed Colgate regarding how important these scores are in the admissions process and they said they are mainly concerned about the actual grade we get in the class.

So do I even stand a chance for Colgate University?

If all of your stas were to stay the same it would be a low reach but if you increase your GPA to 95, it would be a match

3

Honestly, if everything you say is true, I think you should definitely get in! Don’t forget about safety schools though

4

Your ACT is 75th percentile. I’d say it is a match for you.

Bump! I’m really nervous about that 2 I got on AP World

You don’t need to submit AP scores, or you can submit some and not all.
You look like a solid candidate for Colgate and ED can give you a boost

High schools typically don’t report scores on transcripts. Guidance counselor letters can sometimes include AP scores but you can ask the counselor not to include that one.
