Do I have a chance at being accepted RD? If not, ED?

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I go to a nationally acclaimed public magnet school specifically for business (intended major), and my unweighted GPA is a 3.815- my school does not weight GPA. I had a 3.446 freshman year, and 4.0's sophomore and junior year. All my freshman and sophomore courses were very rigorous due to the nature of my school, and all my junior courses were taught at the IB level. In addition, I will graduate with the IB Diploma.</p>

<p>I have a 2250 on the SAT, as well as a 750 on the Chemistry and US History SAT II, and a 780 on the Math SAT II.</p>

<p>I have leadership positions on six clubs, three of which I have founded as not for profits, and made them clubs at my school. I also have the Presidential Award for Volunteer Service, and have 250+ volunteer hours.</p>

<p>I am also on NHS, Spanish Honor Society, and am decently accomplished on my school's Model UN Team, and very accomplished on my schools DECA chapter, (won numerous awards/am on the chapter board).</p>

<p>I also do business research at my school, and have done political campaigning, and have had two internships in finance/business. I am also on my school's golf team, and an editor for the school newspaper. I am also a part of many business/finance/economics things at my school and am decently accomplished in them (Federal Reserve Challenge, Business Professionals of America, Future Business Leaders of America).</p>

<p>I have also attended a one week program at Georgetown, and a study abroad program.</p>

<p>Do I have a shot at Northwestern? It is one of my favorite school. I would be an Economics major if accepted. Any suggestions as to how to improve my chances?</p>

<p>Thanks in Advance!</p>

<p>You absolutely have a shot at NU. The single most effective way to improve your chances is to go Early Decision. </p>
