Questions:

  1. Please be brutally honest
  2. I’ll be applying to Mendoza. Let me know if there are any easier majors that fit my profile that I can apply for instead. Considering sociology to be easier to be admitted into?
  3. I won’t be retaking the sat because I just found out I got a 1410 on October one so the 1460 is higher.
  4. There’s a kid from my school with >1500 on sat and higher class rank. Will this automatically deny me?

@UNCCharlotte2023 - you are in the middle 50% testing (1410-1540) on the SAT. May want to consider the ACT. ECs and Athletics are good. I have found ND’s emphasis on the Arts (Band, Choir, Theater) of incoming freshman interesting. So, that may be your only negative. It will come down to your essays on the application. I would be surprised if a second applicant from your school will deny you. Have you been recruited for tennis at any schools?
