<p>Sorry for the double thread but…
I’m looking for a college that has the following:</p>
<li><p>An EXCELLENT creative writing program. I have a passion for writing and I really want a school that can help me pursue that.</p></li>
<li><p>Near or in a city in the Northeast.</p></li>
<li><p>Small classes. I don’t care about the size of the school, just the size of the classes.</p></li>
<li><p>School spirit!!!</p></li>
<li><p>Other programs I am interested in: Education and History.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>It would help if we had some idea of your academic qualifications. There's not much point in recommending Harvard if your SAT scores are in the 500s...</p>
<p>GPA:
Frosh-3.3
Soph-3.8
Junior-3.5ish (Haven't got report card back yet)
CUM- I think around 3.6</p>
<p>Schedule is mildly difficult:
Junior- Honors English, Honors World History, Honors Chems, Newswriting, Spanish 3, Alg 2.</p>
<p>Senior-AP Chems, AP European History, Physics, Honors English, Newswriting, TA, Alg 3.</p>
<p>BTW: School only offers AP Chems, Bio, English, Euro Hist, Calc, and Art.</p>
<p>I got Cs my frosh year, but I have been a straight A/B student since then (with the exception of second semester math junior year).</p>
<p>ECs:
Newswriting-Editior in Chief (11-12)
Aloha Club (11-12)
Tennis (9-12)
Tennis Community Club-did community service and attended practice 3 days a week for 2 hours (9-11)
Private Tennis Lessons (12)
Spanish Club VP (11-12)
Part-time job (Summer before junior year, but quit when tennis seasion started, and will start work again when school starts)</p>
<p>Do I have a chance? What things do I need to improve on?</p>
<p>I can pay 10,000 per year, but I would definitely need financial aid and I think I could qualify because my parents make a combined income of 60k and they own their own business...but i am an only child.</p>
