Hi I’m a junior who lives in NY. I was wondering if you can chance me for some nursing programs. Here are my stats (not trying to brag or anything, just solely for chancing me)
Grade: 11
Race: Asian
GPA: 3.8
SAT: took it twice so far, plan on taking it again in October for a third time, aiming for a 2000+ score
December 2014: 1740
cr: 550
m: 590
w: 600, 11 essay
March 2015: 1810
cr: 620
m: 610
w: 580, 8 essay
SAT SuperScore: 1830
ACT: planning to take it next week in April, will most likely get around a 25-27. Target score: 30
Extracurriculars: Spanish Club, Interact Club (volunteering based), Red Cross Club (VP position),
Honor Societies: National Honors Society, Mu Alpha Theta, Foreign Language Honors Society, English Honors Society (for three years now, I’ll get in again for my senior year)
Volunteering: at my local church, I’m also volunteering at my local hospital this summer.
AP classes: AP World History, AP US History, AP Physics, AP Literature. I’m planning to take AP Bio, AP Calc AB, AP Lang, and maybe AP Stats for my senior year.
Honors/Accelerated Classes: I’m a year ahead in English and Math. I’ve taken all honors English classes, and honors Spanish classes that are correlated with 8 SUNY college credits.
College Essays: I’ve already practiced with my english teacher, so I think I’ll be able to ace this.
Letters of Recommendation: I already have some good options so there’s no doubt about getting a bad letter or anything.
What are my chances for University of Delaware’s nursing program? That’s definitely one of my top schools. My other schools include Temple University, UMass Amherst, Northeastern, Quinnipiac, U of Rhode Island, SUNY Binghamton, Drexel University, Adelphi University, Rutgers, TCNJ.
I know nursing is such a competitive field nowadays and I always have this fear in my mind that I won’t even get into any direct programs because of the program class sizes being so small.
Do I have what it takes to get into UD? And are my other choices realistic for me?
If you or your son/daughter goes to any of the schools I listed, I would greatly appreciate some feedback of what you think of the school and why you chose it!
Thank you very much!
