Hello, the Holy Cross decisions came out today, unfortunately, I got waitlisted. Is there any way I could still possibly get in? 
I’m pretty discouraged here, it was my top choice.
What are your stats?
My son got in so I can compare and tell you how close you are to him…
Sorry you’re discouraged.
I didn’t submit my SAT scores because they weren’t impressive; Since Holy Cross is test optional I didn’t think it mattered
GPA: 3.91 during my Junior year but it’s 4.1 now
Classes: AP Psychology, AP English and Literature, AP Language, Honors Anatomy, Honors English, Honors US History 1 & 2
Extracurriculars: Metrowest Himane Society donations, Blood Drive, Dietary Aide at a nursing home, Savers clothing donations, Framingham Public Library Donations, Design and Visual Communications
Portfolio: Art work involving digital art, acrylic paint and colored pencils. Essays and poems, and Science research projects
Awards: Science Department award, Design and Visual communications award (2 years) Honor roll for all four years, Best vocational student award, perfect attendance
I also had two good letters of recommendation from my two english teachers because I want to major in english and pre-law. I also sent them my resume and I visited Holy Cross and emailed them every now and then to prove my interests.
Has anyone heard any waitlist news?
Hc rarely goes back to the well unfortunately
This is pretty old now, but I decided to go into my second top choice! 
@Oranolio I decided to go to Bucknell. Good luck!
Congrats— where did you end up?
