<p>Hi, i live in wisconsin and am trying to get into the best college i can. My low GPA is mostly because of spanish, math, and science. I am very good at history and literature.
When I graduate I will have:
Volunteered at my humane society
Volunteered at my local republican party
played 4 years of football
1-2 years of baseball
Been a member of my campus ministry leadership team (I go to a Catholic High school)
Participated in international outreach
been a member of an organization called children of the fallen, a group that provides trust funds for children of fallen soldiers
Worked at 2 grocery stores.</p>
<p>So i would like to stay in the Midwest, buit I'm open to other suggestions. I want to a lawyer some day.</p>
<p>Do you have any advice on where i should go?</p>
<p>I would look into Purdue. It seems like they have a great law/political program. I have not done much research into the school itself but just an idea. Im a transfer student and I was accepted, however im not exactly sure how it’s looking for high school students. My twin sister is going to be a poli sci major and was looking into purdue among other schools because they have the Cspan library. Hope I provided some help for ya.</p>
<p>You have a shot at both Kenyon and Hope (more so at Hope), primarily because you are male, and LACs are a little more flexible with applications from males. However, I think you’d be in the bottom half of their applicant pools. Are you a junior? Have you taken the ACT or SAT yet? If not, I would recommend taking both, because many people score better on one or the other, and you can send the best score in.</p>
<p>You should also talk to your parents about how much they can afford, but the good news is that lots of liberal arts colleges in the midwest are generous with merit-based aid.</p>
