How are my chances?

<p>I am a rising senior and was wondering what you guys think my chances of being accepted into these schools are. Listed in order of preference my top 4 are Michigan, Georgetown, Notre Dame, and Northwestern.</p>

<p>I have taken all available honors classes and the past year took AP Chemistry, AP History, AP Language and Composition, IB Film, and IB Theory of Knowledge. I have taken a very rigorous course load and have earned nearly all A's.</p>

<p>Unweighted: 3.75
Weighted GPA: 4.2
ACT: 33
ACT WRITING: 9</p>

<p>I am in the top 10% of my class out of a class of just over 600.
I am involved in Varsity Soccer, National Honors Society, Student Council, a mentoring program, Junior Class Board(Vice President), my church youth group, intramural athletics, and Peer Mediating. I also do quite a bit of volunteer work outside of school.</p>

<p>*My father, aunt, and two of my grandparents attended Michigan so this may have a slight influence on my acceptance there.</p>

<p>Thank you for your input.</p>

<p>If there is any other information that I should provide just let me know.</p>

<p>By Michigan, I assume you mean University of Michigan? Your academics are definitely good enough, so I’d say you have a good chance, assuming that both your essay and recs are good enough.</p>

<p>Georgetown will definitely be much harder to get into. Your academics are good, but I’m not too sure about your ECs and volunteer work. This college also requires an interview, so good luck with that. Before the interview though, you’d have to have a great essay and great recs.</p>

<p>Notre Dame will be pretty hard to get into as well, though your academics are still good.</p>

<p>Same for Northwestern, but since Northwestern seems to place more weight on academics, you might have a slightly better chance.</p>

<p>Good list of schools-might consider Holy Cross. HC is a very good school with nice campus 1 hour from Boston that is similar to ND and Gtown but easier to get into.</p>

<p>Thank you both for your responses. I may be mistaken but is Holy Cross in Boston Boston College? I visited BC a few years ago and am still considering applying there.
Any other school you recommend?</p>

<p>Also in what areas did you think my EC fell short?</p>

<p>Holy Cross is in Worcester, MA but it’s not too far away from Boston.</p>
