Hi,
I am a junior in high school and am starting the college search. I live in California. My weighted GPA after this year will be a 3.66 and my weighted GPA for sophomore and junior year will be a 3.875. My ACT score is a 27. I have a lot of extra curriculars; I am an Eagle Scout, I have many hours of service work, I was captain of my club sport for two years of high school and I was on a varsity sport team twice sophomore year and once junior year. I also have my own photography business - I sell my photos online as well as at the local farmers market every weekend. I am planning to apply for a business major. These are my top reach schools that I really would love to get into.
UC Santa Barbara
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo
Cal State Long Beach
USC
Pepperdine
How good of a chance do I have getting into these schools? Has anyone got in with similar stats?
One last question… My mom thinks it would be good idea to apply to the harder schools with a photography major because I could send in my portfolio which is extremely developed and is very professional. Once I get in I can apply for a minor in business or try to switch my major. Please let me know what you guys think! Thanks.
