<p>My son got in with similar stats to yours so you should be good.</p>

<p>Nice GPA. If you can get the ACT score up, you should have a pretty good shot at a scholarship.</p>

<p>Don't even sweat it, man! You're definitely in. I mean you're ranked in the top 5 students in your graduating class. You should at least get a 15k-20k scholarship. The average applicant, depending on geographical location, presents a B+/ A-/ A average and an SAT score of 1300-1480, ACT 27-31. Typically, applicants from the tristate area get in with lesser credentials, like a strong B+/A- average and mediocre SATs because of the reputation of their schools (i.e., Roslyn, Jericho, parts of NJ and PA).</p>
