<p>I've recently applied Early Decision to Northeastern University. I sent in my common app before the deadline of Nov.1st, but didn't send in my CSS profile until Nov.15th. The application status checker on their website it says that all Early Decision applicants would be notified by Dec.15th but I was wondering how much earlier than that I might be able to expect a decision? </p>
<p>I'm also pretty nervous about getting in. My weighted high school GPA is 94.13 and my composite ACT is 28, but my combined SAT is only 1910. I've performed in my school's musical for 2 years, and been in auditioned ensembles for chorus and band all 4 years. I'm also on the executive board of my school's chapter of Tri-M music honors society, student director of my chorus class, and president of my school's Gay-Straight Alliance. </p>
<p>I'm also hoping to get a decent amount in financial aid because my family is also trying to send my twin sister to her first choice school this year and we might not be able to afford it all. I know that I probably won't get too much in merit scholarships because I believe I'm an average applicant in terms of grades. I'm hoping I'll maybe get a talent scholarship though, because I sent in a recording of myself singing a vocal solo for them to consider along with the rest of my application.</p>
<p>Oh, I also applied to the College of Arts, Media and Design as a Music Industry major :)</p>
<p>Any advice would be very helpful, I'm a bundle of nerves :/</p>
