<p>I'm thinking about applying Early Decision for Flagler College next school year.
SAT Reading: 560 Math: 420 and Writing: 480, so 1460
ACT Composite: 21
I have a 3.69 unweighted and 4.1 weighted GPA, 100+ volunteer hours, and i'm in Art honor society. I take honors and AP classes. What are my chances? Can someone please tell me?</p>
<p>You’ll def get in. I had worse <em>overall</em> test scores then you (higher math and writing though). I also had a 3.4 weighted GPA and got in regular decision. I took AP and honors classes too. Good Luck! I don’t really suggest applying ED anywhere (I’m more of a fan of EA), but I think you’d get in RD too.</p>
<p>Thanks, I’m not sure about appying early yet.</p>
<p>I think you’ have a pretty good shot. Your GPA, course load, & community work are strong. I would still recommend retaking the SATs to shoot for at least a 500 on math, especially of you choose RD. I’m a jr there now so let me know if you have any questions!</p>
<p>Thanks, I’m retaking the SAT soon. I have visited Flagler before and was shocked by the beauty. How would you sum up your expierence so far?</p>
<p>Really wonderful, honestly.
- great weather.
- small classes, warm/helpful faculty
- most faculty have terminal degrees, very experienced in their field
- heavy student involvement in clubs, SGA, charity, etc
- ample activities on & off campus, good but not distracting nightlife (for 18s & 21s; also, Jacksonville, Savannah, Daytona, & Orlando are all fairly close driving distances)
- friendly, not hyper-competitive students
- GREAT job market (don’t underestimate this in your search!) due to constant tourism
- campus is always growing & expanding, 2 building are in construction currently & one is in the works
- car is not necessary, bikes are preferred
- no dominant political sway
- flexible curriculum & major schedule
That’s all I can think of right.now (currently studying for finals!) but please let me know of you want more specifics!</p>
<p>So there is no political sway, I have heard the town is conservative?
Also do you know anything about the vegetarian/vegan options at the dining hall?
And is it true that girl and guys cannot go into each others dorms, its not a big deal to me but it does seem victorian.</p>
<p>Yeh the town is a bit conservative but downtown (where the college is) it’s not too apparent. That’s just the way north Florida is though.
I’m a vegetarian & I didn’t really have an issue in the dining hall with options. There’s a vegetarian station, a salad bar, a dessert bar, sandwich station, bagels/toast, hot food section, pizza & pasta, omlettes & a hibachi station every day. Dining hall waffles are the BEST. Vegan would be a bit harder though.
& yeh it’s a weird outdated rule. I don’t think the administration really agrees with it anymore & I would expect it to be revised in the next few years.</p>
<p>I am going to flagler this coming fall and I had the same test scores as you but my gpa is a 3.3. You will most likely get in</p>
<p>I hope you enjoy it. Are they big on financial aid?</p>
<p>My aid has been fantastic, but I also come from a low income home.</p>
<p>I also come from a low income home and get benefits from my school.</p>
<p>Do you know if Flagler prefers dual enrollment over AP classes? Also whats your major? I’m hoping to major in History and international relations.</p>
<p>I could ask around, but I would say that there’s no preference from an admissions perspective. However, there may be differences between the two in terms of credit acceptance once actually enrolled. </p>
<p>I’m a psychology major & art history minor. History is a strong, established major, & there are a lot of faculty-led study abroad, research assistantships & obviously the town is saturated in history. I personally work giving historic tours, which is a cool part time job that looks pretty good on a CV. International Relations is an expanding dept, so that would be exciting!</p>
<p>My new SAT scores are R. 590 M. 470 W.510
They improved a bit, I was hoping to do better for scholarships.</p>
