Ok guys so I’m wondering what my chances are of receiving a merit-based scholarship from GWU and if those chances are decent, does anyone have an amount estimate?
Here goes:
White female
Have gone to a selective private Catholic school for all of high school
34 on ACT
Straight As all through high school
4.56 GPA weighted
4.0 GPA unweighted
APs: world history (4), French (4), chemistry (5), U.S. history (5), U.S. government, BC calculus, english lit, Econ (haven’t taken exams for last 4 yet)
ECs: competitive dance team all year except late spring and summer for past 4 years (important leadership position senior year)
Chemistry tutor past 2 yrs
Leader of the writing help center at my school
Clubs: French club, book club (leader), young entrepreneurs, young democrats, earth action team (not all for all four years)
Summer camp counselor past 2 yrs
Rec letters: 2, I’d say pretty good
Essays were also above average, one of them being the best one I wrote throughout the college application process
In general, I have also taken a rigorous course load besides APs, including a bunch of honors classes.
Let me know what you think my chances are of getting a scholarship or let me know if you need more info.
